Galician scallops, the recipe

Le capesante alla galiziana, la ricetta

Galician scallops, the recipe.
Some time ago I went to lunch in the covered market of Tenerife (first time in my life) and I tasted this dish for the first time.
They are scallops au gratin and, online, I discovered that there is a Galician recipe, which I will now describe to you.

Ingredients:

– 1 clove garlic;
– 1 large onion;
– 1/2 cup white wine;
– 1 tablespoon chopped parsley;
– 2 tablespoons breadcrumbs;
– 1 tablespoon sweet smoked paprika
– 5 tablespoons olive oil;
– Salt and pepper.

Preparation:

First make sure the scallops are clean and free of any debris. If the scallops are still attached to the shell, gently separate them. Remove any membranes or inedible parts.
Then sauté with oil, garlic and chopped onions; when it starts to wilt add the paprika and white wine.
Season with salt and pepper, and cook for a minute.
Pour the sauce over the scallops (directly in the shells) and sprinkle them with plenty of breadcrumbs; now put them in the oven, turning on only the grill.
When you see that the surface begins to brown, they are ready; you can remove them from the oven and add a drizzle of dolia oil and parsley (which I don't like so I don't add it).

Dream Sea: The Beautiful Pointe Marin on the Island of Martinique

Mare da sogno: la bella Pointe Marin sull'isola di Martinica

Dream sea: the beautiful Pointe Marin on the island of Martinique.
One of the most beautiful beaches I have been to on the Caribbean island of Martinique.
Unfortunately, on that day, the sky was quite cloudy but the transparent water and the sand, made up of thousands of pieces of crushed shells, were truly unforgettable.

Here's where the beach is located:

Martinique (French: Martinique, Antillean Creole: Matinik, Matnik, or Lamatinik) is an island in the Antilles, a French overseas department (capital: Fort-de-France).

Wooden and Shell Necklaces in Barbados

Collane in legno e conchiglie a Barbados

Wooden and shell necklaces in Barbados.
My mom's favorites are this type of necklace that you can find everywhere in the Caribbean.
These were in the town of Bridgetown in Barbados.
The guy who was selling them, with his cart, even shouted at me because I was taking a picture... who knows why?
I regret not having bought one as a gift but I thought I would go again...

Conchiglia e sabbia a Lambert Bay.
Una conchiglietta adagiata sulla sabbia creata anch’essa da minuscoli frammenti di altre conchiglie.
Questa e’ la composizione di molte spiagge tropicali che si formano dal rompersi di conchiglie, dai coralli rotti e mangiati dai pesci e dal calcare di cui sono composte alcune isole piu’ grandi.
Questa era la sabbia di una delle spiagge (Lambert Bay) di Tortola nelle Virgin British Islands.

Nei Molluschi la conchiglia ha forma varia a seconda delle Classi. È composta da costituenti inorganici come il carbonato di calcio (CaCO3) o il fosfato di calcio (Ca3(PO4)2) che gli animali estraggono dall’acqua di mare e che vengono integrati da sostanze organiche (solitamente un insieme di proteine complesse secrete dal mantello).

Ovviamente questi souvenir, che in moltissimi lughi sono anche vietati da raccogliere, sono un classico di queste isole.
Questa era l’esposizione di un banchetto lungo la strada principale di Kingstown, sull’isola di Sain Vincent.

Le conchiglie sono state impiegate per molti scopi: gli uomini hanno usato le conchiglie come strumenti, strumenti musicali, contenitori, armi, soldi, decorazione, ecc.
Le popolazioni africane da circa 5.000 anni usano le conchiglie di Cypraea e Monetaria come moneta.

Where is Langkawi Island:

Shells have been used for many purposes: humans have used shells as tools, musical instruments, containers, weapons, money, decoration, etc. African populations have been using Cypraea and Monetaria shells as money for about 5,000 years. In Indonesia, locals use giant bivalves (Tridacna gigas) as bathtubs for children. The same shells are also used as baptismal fonts and stoups in some churches. .
