To prepare, simply remove the seafood from its packaging. It can be cooked directly from frozen. For best results, pan-sear the blend in a hot skillet with a little oil until the shrimp turn pink and opaque and the scallops are cooked through. Avoid overcrowding the pan, as this can steam the seafood instead of searing it. You can also add it to simmering sauces or broths towards the end of cooking. Ensure the seafood is thoroughly heated before serving.
How it differs from similar foods
Unlike plain frozen shrimp or scallops, this blend comes pre-seasoned with a distinct lemon-miso flavor. This saves time on marinating and adds a unique umami depth that complements the natural sweetness of the seafood.

How to keep the rest
After opening, store any unused portion in a sealed container in the freezer. It is best to use within a few days for optimal freshness. Keep the packaging tightly closed to prevent freezer burn.
