- Comments: Apart from the Chinese having a natural love of fish and seafood, economic reasons have made these two foods important staples in China. Among the shellfish eaten most are shrimp (prawns), crabs, lobsters, abalone and scallops. Scallops are highly regarded and carefully prepared to bring out their delicacy. Dry scallops are a special delicacy used specifically for various dishes and commanding a fearsomely high price.
- This dish of fresh scallops and asparagus with macadamia nuts is a fairly modern interpretation that with its use of nuts bears the unmistakable stamp of Cantonese cuisine.
