SEARED SCALLOP SALAD WITH PONZU SAUCE



Seared Scallop Salad With Ponzu Sauce image

The Japanese use ponzu sauce as a dipping sauce for raw fish, but it also works well in this recipe. Ponzu is traditionally made with Japanese lemons (yuzu), sometimes available in the US, but limes may be substituted. Store ponzu sauce, covered, in the refrigerator for up to a year, the flavor improves with age! We didn't use the fennel seeds personal preference & it turned out great without it! ;) Found in Saveur Magazne, Issue # 45.
