TASTING NOTES FROM THE CURATOR

They have a tender but firm texture, and are big and juicy. Nama Hotate from Hokkaido are arguably the best in the world. They have a clean, sweet flavor, and are great alone or as an ingredient.

PREPARATION AND PAIRINGS

Nama Hotate is ideal for sushi and sashimi, but it’s also great cooked. You can pan-sear them in butter, and use them in pastas. You can also grill them, or add them as an ingredient in soups and stews.

THE HOLY SCALLOP

The scallop shell is known as the emblem of the crusaders of the Order of St. James (or St. Jacques), one of Jesus’ 12 apostles. There is a legend that connects the two, being that he once saved a knight covered in scallops from drowning. The variation of that tale is that while his remains were being transported from Jerusalem to Spain, a knight’s horse fell into the water, emerging covered in scallops.

The scallop then became the symbol of St. James, and Medieval Christians would often have a scallop shell symbol on their clothing when they made the pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostela in Spain, to the shrine of St. James.
