scallops are a separate species (shellfish). but You can simulate scallops from stingray, or shark, or even skates (relatives of stingrays). All of these fish are naturally boneless and provide A LOT of clean, white fillets. Stingray, shark or skate fillets must be well drained of blood (usually at the time of capture), skinned, and trimmed of any cartilage.
Ok, when I was growing up it was common knowledge that while bay scallops, the small kind, were really from shellfish, the larger sea scallops were actally made from the flesh of skate, shark, or some other trash fish.ellers are frequently asked if the scallops are real or if they've been manufactured from skate or shark. The origin of this rumor is hard to determine --there are probably restaurants that have tried such sneaky tricks--but it's hard to imagine it being worth the effort.
