Recipe: Scallops with chili
Saint Jacques with West Indian pepper, I love the look of this pepper, it inspires confidence with this beautiful red and yet, it is formidable in the kitchen and that is what makes its charm. Okay, to be fair, Raf scowled a bit and brushed off a little chili. So it’s up to you to dose. Chilli scallops, chilli hell with the sweetness of scallops, here is a marriage of extremes, I loved it. Chestnuts were also present to sweeten it a bit. It is true that our culture in Franche Comté does not make us cook too much with these devilish little vegetables, but they are so beautiful how to leave them aside.
