Hey, you! ❤️❤️
It was Valentine's Day last weekend. What were your plans?

We don't normally celebrate Valentine's Day because I feel like love day should be every day (but I do like receiving beautiful flowers hihihi). With the current situation, I honestly wouldn't have minded celebrating en tete-a-tete in a restaurant with the Husband. But unfortunately, all restaurants are still closed here in France since October / November 2020.
We thought of taking out food from a local restaurant, but I decided I would make something special instead.

For a year now, I've been ordering fish and seafood online. I'll have to write all about it here soon! They arrive straight from the fisherman and are the freshest!
This time I ordered scallops and decided to make Easy Seared Scallops. They were wonderful! Personally, I find that scallops are perfect for a special occasion because they are pricey and just divine. They are naturally buttery, delicate, and have a slight sweet flavour. For this recipe, I also prepared Risotto to accompany the scallops, but you can also make it with Truffled Mashed Potatoes, for example.
