SCALLOPS IN SAFFRON SAUCE
These are the most delicious scallops I have ever had. Perfect for a special occasion as an appetizer. I found the fish stock hard to find so I substituted vegetable stock and it was just as good. Also, I would imagine you could substitute the scallops for prawns.

Steps:
- In a large pot, bring the white wine to a boil over high heat. Add the lobster, cover, reduce heat and steam for 10 minutes. Remove the lobster and set aside. Reserve the broth.
- When the lobster is cool, remove the meat from the claws and tail and set aside. Use a sharp knife to split the body and to break the shell into 2- to 3-inch chunks. Place the shells in the reserved lobster broth over low heat, and simmer for 1 hour. Strain and set aside.
- Melt 1 teaspoon of the butter in a clean saucepan. Add the shallots, and saute until softened, about 30 seconds. Add the lobster broth and the sparkling wine, and bring to a slow simmer. Add the scallops, and simmer just until cooked through, about 3 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon, place in a bowl and cover with foil to keep warm.
- Place 2 cups of the poaching liquid in a small saucepan over medium heat. Simmer until reduced to 1 cup, about 15 minutes. Add the saffron, and simmer until reduced to 1/2 cup, about 10 minutes. Cut the remaining 1 1/2 teaspoons butter into small pieces. Remove the sauce from the heat, and gradually whisk in the butter. Carefully stir in the caviar to avoid breaking the eggs.
- Cut the lobster meat into bite-size chunks. Steam the spinach just until wilted, and divide among 4 plates. Divide the scallops among the plates, sprinkle with lobster chunks and spoon the sauce over the scallops and lobster. Serve immediately.
