Scallops cooked in beurre noisette

The beurre noisette adds a rich flavour to the scallops that complements them wonderfully. Cooking the scallops in a water bath achieves the perfect result. If desired, you can brown the scallops with a kitchen blowtorch. The whipping cream in this recipe adds more milk proteins that caramelise to enhance the beurre noisette flavour.
