"This is my second order for your oregano and I would like to say that it is the "BEST" I have ever used. It is better, much better, than my own home grown oregano. I want to thank you people for a superior product that I absolutely love and so do the friends I share it with...God Bless"   Charles W.,  Plainville, Connecticut

(Capesante Scottato Su Risotto di Gamberi e Tartufo)
 
 
Ingredients:
 
Three 8-ounce bottles clam juice
1 cup chicken broth
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
6 uncooked large shrimp, peeled, deveined, diced
1/4 cup chopped onion

1/4 cup dry white wine
2 tablespoons (1/4 stick) butter
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
6 large sea scallops
Truffle oil*
2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
 
Directions:
 
Bring clam juice and broth to simmer in medium saucepan.

Reduce heat to low; cover to keep warm.

Heat olive oil in heavy medium saucepan over medium-high heat.

Using slotted spoon, transfer to bowl.
