If you have clam juice, ginger, cornstarch, and a few other ingredients on hand, you can make it. To use up the ginger you could follow this main course with the Ginger Cake with Crystallized Ginger Frosting as a dessert. It is a good option if you're following a dairy free and pescatarian diet.

Recommended wine: Chardonnay, Chenin Blanc, Pinot Noir
Chardonnay, Chenin Blanc, and Pinot Noir are my top picks for Scallops. Chardonnay and chenin blanc are great matches for grilled or seared scallops. If your scallops are being matched with bacon or other cured meats, try a lightly chilled pinot noir.
Santa Ema Chardonnay Reserva is a bright golden yellow colored wine that comes from the Leyda Valley. A bouquet of ripe tropical fruits emerges, such as bananas and passion fruit along with touches of honey and vanilla. In the mouth, it is a wine of good balance and pleasant acidity.Ideal to go with oily fish and sauces, seafood and grilled crab. Also ideal for white meat and mature cheeses.
