Instructions
1
Prepare the Scallops
Briefly soak the scallops in water, then immediately transfer to ice water for rapid cooling. Remove them and make a cut halfway deep on the side. Add scallion, ginger, salt, and wine and marinate for about 10 minutes. Pan-sear until both sides are golden, then plate.
2
Prepare the Asparagus
Take the bud portion of the asparagus, blanch in salted water until just cooked, and set aside as a plate garnish.
3
Assemble and Plate
Take the foie gras and lightly sear it. Place the seared foie gras on top of the scallops, drizzle with sauce, arrange the asparagus as garnish, and serve.
