Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 pieces fresh sea scallops
- 100 grams edamame beans
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon chopped fresh ginger
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- 0.5 teaspoon wasabi paste
- 1 stalk green onion, finely sliced
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
- 0.25 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Begin by preparing the scallops. Rinse the scallops under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels. Once dry, slice each scallop horizontally into thin slices using a sharp knife. Arrange the slices neatly on a serving platter, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate until ready to serve.
To prepare the edamame beans, bring a small pot of water to a boil. Add the edamame and boil for 3-4 minutes until tender but still vibrant green. Drain well and refresh under cold running water to stop the cooking process. Pat the edamame dry with paper towels and set aside.
In a small bowl, combine the soy sauce, ginger, sesame oil, lime juice, and wasabi paste. Mix well to create a flavorful dressing.
Arrange the boiled edamame around the scallop sashimi slices on the serving platter.
Drizzle the soy dressing over the scallop sashimi and edamame, ensuring each slice receives ample flavor.
Sprinkle the finely sliced green onion and sesame seeds evenly across the dish. Season with a light sprinkle of sea salt and black pepper to enhance the taste.
Serve immediately as a refreshing appetizer or light main dish. Enjoy the balance of flavors and the high protein content that the scallops and edamame provide.
