Cooks' Note

Paired with a green salad and whole-grain crackers, this makes a terrific warm weather lunch. The flavorful horseradish sauce gives the dressing its creamy texture; for added zest, stir in 1 tablespoon prepared horseradish. Use either tiny bay scallops (tasty, but not always available) or larger sea scallops that have been quartered.
