scallop

Scallop: It is now named because its shell is shaped like a fan, and it is a valuable marine bivalve. It has a particularly large closed shell muscle, so scallop is also called dry revolutionary scallop. Scallops like to live in shallow water with light and swift current, and are fixed on seabed rocks or sand with sufficient silk. Shells are thin and hard, with a number of radiating ribs on them, showing bright colors such as red, yellow, purple and moonlight, which are excellent raw materials for shell carving crafts. The scallops produced in Beidaihe are mainly comb-hole fans. Its meat is tender, delicious and nutritious, and its protein content is over 60%, which is four times higher than that of eggs.
