Quick Answer. Scallops are not made from stingrays. A stingray is an ancient type of fish with a cartilage skeleton. A scallop is a type of marine mollusk.
Nectar from mussels is sweeter, but very similar to clam nectar. Scallops are sort of a special kind of clam, with a large muscle. Often we just get the muscle in restaurants and stores. I have had both whole muscles, from the fisherman, and the muscles, in restaurants and fish markets. The muscle is often breaded and fried, or added to chowder at the last minute, so it doesnât overcook. Oysters are different from clams, scallops, and mussels.
