Isle of Man Queenies

(Manx Queen Scallops)

Isle of Man Queenies are medium-sized queen scallops that are sustainably caught on Isle of Man. Their shell can be yellow, orange, brown, red or purple and the opaque/cream coloured meat inside the shell consists of a small, circular, cylindrical muscle to which the roe is attached.


The roa can be left as it is or removed, depending on personal preferences. The taste is delicately sweet and scallops are incredibly versatile in the culinary sense. Use them in salads, baked or seared. When sold, they can be packed dry, frozen, fresh or vacuum packed.
