Updated: Oct 13

Sustainably wild-caught in Australia’s pristine Shark Bay and Abrolhos Islands. Sweet, firm, easy to cook, and MSC-certified for quality.


Trusted Supplies: What It Means

At Food Explorer, Trusted Supplies means delivering seafood that combines quality, sustainability, and convenience. Our scallops (Ylistrum balloti) embody this promise. Wild-caught in some of the cleanest waters on earth, they offer a naturally sweet flavor, firm texture, and nutrient-rich profile that chefs and families alike can trust.


The Species: Ylistrum balloti (Far West Scallops)

Also known as Far West scallops, Ylistrum balloti is highly prized for:

  • Fresh, sweet flavor with a subtle ocean-salt balance.

  • Firm, succulent texture that holds beautifully when seared.

  • Natural pearly-white color that signals freshness and purity.

Whether served simply seared in butter or as the star of a gourmet dish, these scallops bring elegance and flavor to any table.


Sustainably Wild-Caught in Australia

Our scallops are harvested from the pristine, heritage-listed waters of Shark Bay, as well as the Abrolhos Islands and the South Coast of Western Australia.

Wild-caught — grown naturally in the ocean, not farmed.

Sustainably managed — certified by the Marine Stewardship Council (MSC).

Over 40 years of trust — enjoyed worldwide for consistent quality.

With Far West as the largest producer of scallops in Australia, these products reflect decades of expertise and a legacy of responsible fishing.


Why They Taste So Good

The secret lies in the unique marine environment of Western Australia:

  • Pristine, clean waters of Shark Bay, a UNESCO World Heritage site.

  • Cool, nutrient-rich currents that promote natural growth.

  • Minimal human intervention allowing scallops to develop a rich, sweet, slightly salty flavor and a pleasantly firm bite.

Every bite captures the taste of Australia’s ocean heritage.

Easy to Cook, Perfect for Any Occasion

One of the biggest appeals of our scallops is how simple and quick they are to prepare.

Cooking Ideas (10–12 mins or less):

  • Seared Scallops: Pan-sear with butter and garlic for a caramelized crust.

  • Steamed on the Half Shell: Add soy sauce, ginger, and spring onions for an Asian twist.

  • Scallop Pasta: Toss into creamy pasta with herbs for a restaurant-quality meal at home.

  • BBQ Scallops: Grill lightly for gatherings, delicious in under 5 minutes.

Because they’re blast-frozen and available on the half shell, you can go from freezer to plate with no fuss, no waste.


Nutrition Benefits

Scallops are not just a delicacy, they’re a nutritional powerhouse:

  • High in protein (lean and easy to digest).

  • Low in fat, heart-friendly and great for seniors.

  • Rich in Omega-3 supporting heart and brain health.

  • Packed with vitamins & minerals such as B12, magnesium, and zinc.

This makes them ideal for children, working adults, and the elderly, combining indulgence with nourishment.
