About Scallop skirt

The scallop skirt is a lesser-known yet flavorful cut of muscle tissue encasing the scallop, often marketed as a sustainable seafood choice. With origins rooted in coastal cuisines worldwide, it is prized in Asian and European dishes for its firm texture and rich oceanic taste. Nutritionally, it is a low-calorie, high-protein option, making it ideal for those seeking lean protein sources. Packed with essential nutrients like vitamin B12, magnesium, and omega-3 fatty acids, it promotes heart health, brain function, and overall wellness. However, it should be consumed in moderation due to its potential sodium content, depending on preparation methods. Often grilled, sautéed, or added to soups, the scallop skirt is a versatile ingredient that brings both nutrition and depth of flavor to your meals.
