The thought of ginger and scallops, cooking together, makes me wonder how good it must smell!

This sounds delicious! It is a must make very soon. I have fresh spinach in the fridge now, and some scallops in the freezer, I've stocked up on since making scallop soup posted from victoriaregina. 5 from me
