Recipe
Scallop Cakes with Hummus
For the Hummus: ½ cup your favorite hummus
1 tablespoon fresh parsley leaves, finely chopped
1 pinch chili powder, to your liking
For the Scallop Cakes: 2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoon Shallots, finely chopped
12 ounces Scallops
1 teaspoon minced Ginger (store-bought)
1 teaspoon Garlic paste
1 teaspoon finely chopped fresh Chives Leaves
¼ cup crusted oyster crackers
1 egg
Optional: 4 burger buns, toasted or a wrap
1 handful of greens, divided among the 4 burgers
Prepare the hummus. In a medium bowl combine
the hummus, parsley, and chili powder and mix until well combined. Set aside.
Prepare the scallop cake. In a large sauté pan over medium heat slick the pan with 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Sauté
the shallots and for 7 minutes or until they soften. When the shallots are done, scrape them into a food processor. Wipe down the pan and set it
back on the stove. Add the scallops, ginger, garlic, chives, oyster crackers, and egg into the food processor and pulse until a paste is formed.
When the scallop mixture starts to come together, create 4 equal burgers and fry them in 1 tablespoon of olive oil
in the pan over medium low heat. Cook the burgers for 4 minutes with a lid, flipping half way through.
The burgers are done when the scallops are opaque and a golden crust is formed. Served on a toasted bun and a
handful of greens or tucked in a wrap. Include a dollop of hummus.
To bake the scallop cakes instead of frying preheat the oven to 350F and bake for 20 minutes or until golden brown.
Yield: 4 servings

"The Rebecca Bent copy of Down at the Shore Cookbook is a great addition to anyone's collection! The full color
illustrations are most fantastic! I am salivating and making my Oh-la-la's over all of Rebecca's recipes! My nick-name, Flying Nosh, comes from being a 747 pilot for United Airlines. Flying all over the globe I
stick my nose into every restaurant kitchen, large and small, and have become a rather experienced chef/connoisseur.... We, my family,
had a most fantastic Maryland crab feast yesterday! And, today, Friday, we will still be noshing through the night on more of
your wonderful steamed crab! Thanks so much for the personal touch! You have a devoted fan! I will spread the word throughout the
cosmos...."

"To all the wonderful employees of The Crabplace, I cannot
express to you how very wonderful it is to do business with you. I am truly a coastline person, living in a land-locked Midwestern
suburb of Chicago, Illinois. We do have a nice supply of seafood within the last decade to the general public, however, nothing
compares to the quality of your product that I have so sweetly enjoyed over the weekend. I have enjoyed some wonderful oysters here
around the Christmas holidays, but only in my dreams and on television have I had pleasure of such wonderful soft shell crabs! The
freshness, quality, outstanding SIZE, as well as the almost immediate delivery of fresh seafood, nice and cold and sealed perfectly.
I felt as privileged as Julia Child in preparing my dinners for the last four nights. I am so very glad I stumbled across your web
page and within seconds was able to place my first order. There will be many forth coming. Thank you again."
