We have made many contacts with local fishing boats, buying the freshest and highest quality available.

High Country Seafood Co. uses a all natural "Dry" Sea Scallops which are shucked on board on the Scallop boats and packed in special cloth bags. When you purchase fresh Sea Scallops from High Country Seafood Co. you are purchasing them only one step removed from the original fishing boats.

Dry Sea Scallops have a medium firm texture and a sweet flavor which can run from mild to briny. Scallop meat can be tan to white to an almost orange brown color and still be fresh. Dry Sea Scallops do cost a little more than "Processed" Sea Scallops (chemical preservatives added), but they are certainly worth it.
