Ingredients

4 large day boat scallops

1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lime juice

1 teaspoon good-quality extra-virgin olive oil

Vanilla Salt

1/8 teaspoon freshly grated ginger

3 mint leaves, sliced into chiffonade

To make vanilla salt, all you do is scrape out the insides of a vanilla bean and put it into a 1/4 cup of salt. Let it sit for 2 days and it'll be ready to use. Easy!!

Directions

Slice each scallop horizontally into four thin disks and arrange on a serving dish. Drizzle with lime juice and olive oil, then sprinkle with a generous pinch of Vanilla Salt.

Scatter ginger and mint over the dish and serve

Excellent appetizer- very clean on the palette.

I agree with beelzebufo, its really an excellent appetizer. The mint balance your taste palettes before the entree is serve. I've tried it but i replace ginger with japanese pickled ginger (benisyoga). It adds another distinct taste & color to your dish. The White scallops, Green mint, Red-orange ginger, & Yellow lemon slice gives it more elegance. Salamat!!
