This solid copper mold lined inside with nickel is shaped like a scallop shell, one of Mother Nature's most pleasing shapes. The shell mold measures 9- 1/2" and holds 1-1/4 qts.
The shell mold makes an attractive kitchen decoration just hanging on the wall. But, should you choose to use it to prepare a dish like cocquille St. Jacques, the lacquer coating protecting it from tarnishing should be removed (directions for doing this are included). Other uses: fish mousse, aspics, gelatins.
