Why cook scallops in a clay pot (煲仔)?
- What's this dish from a Cantonese restaurant in Hong Kong, with carrots and sesame seeds?
I chanced this clay pot (煲仔) on Summer Palace's [Tripadvisor page](https://www.tripadvisor.ca/Restaurant_Review-g294217-d1895824-Reviews-Summer_Palace-Hong_Kong.html#photos;aggregationId=101&albumid=101&filter=7&ff=307995703), a Cantonese cuisine restaurant in Hong Kong.1. I see cellophane or glass noodles, and spring onions. Or are those scallions?2. How are the scallops cooked? Would the restaurant just put all the raw ingredients in the clay pot, then put the clay pot over the stove?3. But why use the clay pot (煲仔)? Isn't this the same as steaming scallops in a pan?![Image alt text](https://cooking.codidact.com/uploads/Zzximmuv8cpsW66S8WfZY5Wa)
