Product information
Our live scallops are a high-quality product that lends itself perfectly to being used raw in professional kitchens. For us, only whole shells with a minimum size of 13 cm are selected. The quality is comparable to that of submerged or Norwegian scallops, but at a significantly more attractive price. The result is a beautiful, plump product that reaches an exceptional level thanks to the careful handling by the crew.
From September to April
France, Diepeppe
Origin
The scallops are caught up to three times a week under suitable weather conditions. To guarantee freshness and quality, they are continuously rinsed with water immediately after catching, both on board and during transport, ensuring they never dry out. Upon arrival at De Meulemeester's basins, they undergo a specific purification process during which they remain under a constant water shower for at least 24 hours. This causes them to naturally clean themselves, resulting in completely sand-free scallops.
Other information
The freshness of this product is guaranteed by packaging the scallops in Styrofoam immediately after removal from the water. They are placed between layers of seaweed and secured firmly with clips. Thanks to this careful method and the minimal quantity of scallops per tub during depuration, they arrive at your doorstep with exceptional vitality.
