The Best Scallops I've Ever Made

[@thatdudecancook]

Anyone else a massive fan of scallops!! Literally one of my favorite things to eat no questions!!

Never ate them lol

Missing out y'all, I'm from Florida; they're a staple. Chives are good with it too.

[@tylermontgomery9807]

I fukn love scallops!

[@michaelah7118]

This is honestly one of the best cooking channels out there, and this is coming from someone who watches a lot of cooking channels! Love the personality man.

[@michaelshadwick3487]

hey.. were you watching when Chef B said, "I'm going to guess the name of someone watching!"?

[@MichaelKch007]

I was.😉

[@sportmom2222]

I would have to agree with you on this being one of the best cooking channels. I grew up watching Julia Child, the French Chef on tv. I like watching Sonny just as much. And of course Gordon Ramsey and Chef Jean-Pierre. You’re still the best of the lot, Sonny!

[@GeorgeSagen]

I love it too, but my family keeps walking in while he's beating up the refrigerator, and it's kind of hard to explain to them why.

[@thegoldenbalance]

You’re a legend

I didn't think I could love this chef any more than I do. Then I watch him harvest garlic scapes in his garden.

[@ism1876]

You never disappoint

[@wyvernranger6923]

Agree

[@78LedHead]

Yeah, he's probably my fave right now. Honestly, his dishes look better than Gordon Ramsey's. Gordon adds way too many herbs and it just gets ridiculous at times.

[@ocashflo]

You know he loves you!!

[@aarronforeman7290]

I made this yesterday and lord it was absolutely amazing! I couldn’t find garlic scapes for the pesto from any of my local supermarket, so I substituted it with a bunch of chives, and the pesto came out awesome. But by far, my favorite was that white wine sauce! It paired so nicely with the scallops. The cauliflower purée, also amazing. Honestly everything was amazing and just paired so nicely with each other. And the final product, when done properly, does look extremely professional!

[@aliaqarahimi5410]

Best cooking channel... Professionalism, experience, raw culinary intelligence, humor, positivity, and martial arts, of course! Great job...

[@ask230]

Man, I really prefer this Sonny. Reminds me of pre-tiktok Sonny. Just cooking, not gimmicky, (almost) no yelling, (almost) no beating up appliances. I know people like that stuff, and it's often funny. But in my opinion, it's so much better when your videos focus on the cooking instead. Great stuff! Keep it up!

[@yakubkeskin384]

„I love you fridge. I am still gonna mess u up in a min.“😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@mimi1568]

That looks phenomenal! I can almost taste it just looking at it. I always wondered why they wet packed scallops. Thanks for the explanation.

[@sheag6200]

Also so glad that Sergeant Gilbert lives!!! Funny but I actually shed a tear over that video when we lost Sergeant Gilbert just like I shed a tear in the movie Castaway when Wilson floated away

I’d love to see a series where you taste and rate restaurants. Then, when it’s awesome, you beat the sh*t out of the their walk in cooler, or the chef, or wait staff, or whoever happens to be nearby. “You know I love you and I’m out!” Cut scene to restaurant staff in the hospital

Dry scallops are typically soaked overnight. Try to find a scallop that was frozen at sea or a chemical free scallop. When a scallop is soaked and then cooked the protiens and flavor is flushed out. Scallops are soaked to give them a longer shelf life and to make more money. Looks delicious

[@MissJean63]

The best scallops I ever had were at a place in Dana Point, CA. Grilled over fettuccini and topped with a green chili sauce. Delicious.

[@meladams5099]

Great job!! Thank you for showing me how to cook some scallops in a great way!! When I was stationed in Japan I met a Japanese woman who's mom taught the wives of doctors how to cook traditional Japanese meals. She made scallops in an anchovy sauce and served it with cauliflower. I cannot replicate it but it was awesome. Tomiko Morita is her name.

[@NinaHypeGaming]

"I love you fridge but ima mess you up in a minute" is the backbone of this channel 🤣

[@jonathanoka7866]

U can always tell a great experienced chef by their handling tactics such as going into a hot pan to pull out scallops. My daughter's always ask how am i not worried about the heat or oil splats lol

If you do a quick ~2 second blanch of the basil leaves then dunk them in an ice water bath before using them to make the pesto, the pesto will stay bright green.

Dude, my friend knew a diver that harvested only giant "pie plate" Sea Scallops from the cold, deep water of the Gulf of Maine. The meats were the size of golf balls. I cooked them on the grill with just a little teriyaki splashed on them. They were the most succulent scallops I have ever eaten in my life! I live on the Eastern Seaboard so I eat a lot of seafood . Nothing has ever compared (except maybe fresh Yellowfin tuna caught that day).
