  • About
The bivalve mollusk family includes oysters, clams, mussels, and scallops. During the R months of the year they are considered to be at their best. A characteristic of the mollusks is that each shell contains but one morsel of food. Scallops are an exception in France, since they are sold in that country with the roe. This is a custom we might well adopt, since these are choice tidbits that we now discard when the scallop is harvested and cleaned. Not only is the roe delicious, but its orange color and its texture add to any dish in which it is used.
