Wanchese Scallop Medallions™ are produced from sea scallops caught by our factory boats off the coast of Argentina. The vessels harvest the scallops, process them, and then they are frozen-at-sea (FAS). This process ensures the finest scallops possible. Once they are unloaded at the plant, we combine the scallops with a natural protein binder to form a larger scallop. As a result you will get a great product that is 100% whole all natural sea scallops with no added water or chemicals.

TruDry Scallops®
Introducing TruDry Scallops, a great way to add larger scallops to your menu without the higher cost. We start by combining whole, fresh, wild caught sea scallops with a natural protein binder to create the perfect scallop. They are hand cut to allow them to take on a more natural shape. The result is a 100% all natural TruDry Sea Scallop with no added water or chemicals.
At Wanchese, we understand the importance for transparency. We harvest from community waters and strive to earn our community’s trust. Our TruDry scallop demonstrates our honest attempt of delivering quality seafood and not only meeting expectations, but blowing them out of the water.
Scallops are natural sponges. It is commonplace for sellers to add water to their catch. It makes the catch heavier and look larger. However, this is a temporary condition. When scallops are cooked, this added water evaporates returning the shellfish back to its natural size.
