Tofu scallops look, smell, feel and taste like wild scallops and are easy to make in a skillet or oven. A great way to have an abundant scallop feast at an affordable price.

Feel with fork if mix is stiff, cool jar on its side so any liquid can drain. Slice tofu scallop mix in thick slices, then press out scallops with inverted egg cup.

Roll scallops in molten butter with capers, mild black garlic powder and white pepper, then breadcrumbs
5

Panfry 15 minutes in low heat cast iron skillet, flip, fry other side 15 minutes.

The ones below were made with black icelandic caviar which turned the scallops blue. The taste was delicious.

California, United States

I teach people at the farmers market to grow small scale fruits and vegetables. My grandparents and parents taught me growing, cooking and preserving home grown fruits and vegetables, eggs, meats and fish. I got certified by the University of California Master Gardener Program in 2005. I try to bring out the original flavor of ingredients, then add layers of spices, herbs and flavorings that enhance, not distort the taste. These are the global, organic and vegan family recipes we use.
