Could you elaborate on the reasoning behind adding water to scallops during the cooking process? Is it to enhance the flavor, texture, or for some other culinary purpose? I'm curious to understand the science behind this practice and how it impacts the final dish. Is there a specific ratio of water to scallops that's recommended, or does it vary depending on the recipe or cooking method? Additionally, are there any potential drawbacks or considerations to keep in mind when using this technique?

Scallops, when fresh, are often preserved to extend their shelf life and maintain their quality. A common method of preservation involves storing them in cold sea water.

In addition to this physical preservation, artificial preservatives are also employed. One of the most common chemicals used for this purpose is sodium triphosphate, or STPP.

STPP works by absorbing water into the scallops, causing them to appear plumper and heavier. However, this added water weight can be deceptive for consumers.

When purchasing scallops at the grocery store, customers are essentially paying for the water weight that has been artificially added through the use of STPP.
