Excessive consumption will affect the gastrointestinal motility and digestive function, resulting in food stagnation, difficult to digest and absorb. Scallops are high in protein and eating more may cause skin rash. The sodium glutamate contained in scallops is the main component of monosodium glutamate, which can be decomposed into glutamic acid and tyrosine. Under the action of intestinal bacteria, it can be transformed into toxic and harmful substances, which will interfere with the normal metabolism of brain nerve cells. Therefore, we must eat it in an appropriate amount.

The dried scallops with good quality have complete grains, uniform size, light yellow color and slight luster.

Scallops should be soaked in warm water before cooking, or steamed with a small amount of water, yellow rice wine, ginger and scallion, then cooked into dishes.

Scallops and sausages can not be eaten together: they are rich in amines, and sausages contain nitrosamines. Eating both kinds of food at the same time will combine to form nitrosamines, which is harmful to human body.

After it is fixed by the foot silk, it opens two shells slightly and feeds on the plankton in the water filtered by the gills. Hermaphroditism, 1-year sexual maturity, orange ovary, milky white testis, breeding period from May to July, the optimum temperature for reproduction is 16-19 ℃.

[animal and plant morphology]

1. Scallop Chlamys farreri has a fan-shaped shell with thin shell. The shell is about 85mm in length, 93mm in height and 1 / 3 in width. It is flat on the side, convex on the left and slightly flat on the right. The center of the shell is located in the center of the front end. From the top of the shell, the front ear and the back ear extend forward and backward respectively. The length of the front ear is about twice as long as that of the back ear. The shape of the anterior ear of the two shells is different. The anterior ear of the left shell is triangular, with many ribs on the surface. There is a notch on the ventral surface of the anterior ear of the right shell, which makes the anterior ear inverted trapezoid, with ribs on the surface. At the junction of the ear and the edge of the shell, there is a triangular wrinkled small area. There are more than 6-10 pectinate small teeth on the forward edge of the shell, so it is called pectinate hole, which is the foot silk hole. The front ear of the right shell curls to the edge of the left shell. The posterior ears of both shells are of the same size. The color of the shell surface is orange red to purple brown. Due to individual differences, the color of the left shell is often dark, and the color of the right shell is light. There are about 10 thick and protruding radial ribs, and there are often several thin radial ribs between each two. There are more main radial ribs in the left shell, about 20 or more, and there are also small radial ribs between the ribs. There were nail like spinous processes on all the thicker radial ribs. And the shell surface is often epiphytic spirochetes and other small tube dwelling ring insects. The inner surface of the shell is mostly milky white, and there is also a little purple orange reflecting the shell surface, with pearl like luster, and there are angular ligament grooves corresponding to the radial ribs. The outer and outer tunica leaves are close to the inner surface of the shell, covering the visceral mass. In the center of the visceral mass, the muscle is composed of smooth muscle and striated muscle, which is the white hypertrophic adductor muscle. The muscle marks were not obvious. The feet are cylindrical and golden yellow.

2. Scallop, Chlamys nobilis, has a round and fan-shaped shell, about 108mm in length and nearly equal in height and length. The shell color is gorgeous, showing purple brown, yellow brown, light red or with jujube red smoke like stripes. The radial ribs are larger, about 23, and there are 3 thin ribs between the two ribs. The growth line is dense, forming rather dense and raised scales.

3. Chlamys farreri, shell nearly round, shell length 38 mm, similar to height. The anterior ear is slightly larger than the posterior ear. The surface of the left shell is white, with yellowish brown cloud pattern and about 22 radial ribs. The growth line is raised near the ventral margin and slightly scaly. The surface of the left shell is grayish white and slightly fleshy.
