Description
This light and elegant dish is bound to elicit a chorus of ‘ooohs’ from your guests and the ease with which you can put this together makes it a fantastic dinner party starter. You could use our wonderful frozen Japanese sashimi grade scallops, and defrost them. Alternatively, we have fresh scallops, some in shell, if you're looking to style the plate in an interesting way! Using either frozen sashimi or fresh scallops will reward you with their sea-sweetness brought alive by the fruity tang of finger lime pearls bursting in your mouth.
