Hokkaido Hotate (Sashimi-Grade Scallops) [Small/Medium Sized] 1kg ほたて

'扇贝'. In other words, 'to raise a sail'. 

Like how a sailboat is pushed by the wind, the Scallop uses its palatial shell to heave its way across the Hokkaido seabed, soaking up the numerous micro & macro nutrients along the way. 

health benefits include a reduced blood cholesterol, blood pressure, and the aid of development to your eyes & brain (taurine).
