Pan-seared scallops—with golden crusts and buttery-soft centres—are a meal anyone can pull off at home. With so many types on the market, it pays to look for quality scallops—luckily, Canada is blessed with some of the best on the planet. Because they cook so quickly (pro tip: To ensure they sear, don’t crowd the pan), make the rest of the recipe beforehand. The fresh grapefruit salad complements the molluscs (and, bonus, gives you a sauce), and the edamame hummus anchors a recipe that hits the table in no time.
