The seafood pilgrim is pure seafood luxury with a crunchy heart: delicate inside, golden outside and always unforgettable in every bite.
The “sea pilgrim scallop” is an exquisite reinterpretation of the classic breaded scallop, in which the refinement of the seafood is combined with a tasty and sophisticated filling. The heart of this preparation is formed by a juicy mixture of scallops, finely chopped white onion, butter and a touch of olive oil, creating an aromatic base that enhances the sweet and delicate flavor of the scallop. This filling is balanced with a splash of white wine, salt and pepper, achieving a smooth, marine and very aromatic mixture.
Once stuffed, the scallop is lightly battered to obtain a crispy and golden layer on the outside that contrasts with the tender and creamy inside. This cooking technique enhances the nuances of the seafood and transforms the dish into a complete sensory experience: from the crunch of the coating to the explosion of flavors of the filling, where each ingredient plays its role without overshadowing the other. The result is an elegant dish, with a traditional soul but with a modern execution.
Beyond its flavor, the “sea pilgrim” scallop also has a symbolic component linked to the tradition of the Camino de Santiago, where the scallop shell represents the pilgrim. This dish, therefore, not only pays tribute to the flavors of the sea, but also to the history and culture of those who walk the roads in search of unique experiences. A proposal that unites culinary art with spiritual legacy, in a recipe that leaves its mark.
