Liz’s Notes

Before seasoning or cooking shrimp, scallops or any form of protein, I highly recommend patting it dry with a paper towel first. This is especially true for seafood that has been previously frozen and likely has retained a bit of water. By removing this excess water you will end up with a better end product.
