Anyone know where to buy Dried Scallops in Sydney?

I'm looking to get some dried scallops. Does anyone know where to source them in Sydney?

Do any of the Japanese stores sell any?

  • I had this problem before. Look in Chinese grocer or traditional medicine shops. I know Cabramatta has a lot in glass jars near the counter. Otherwise they are in packets on the shelf near the dried mushrooms and stuff. Better off asking the cashier instead of trying to search, I used google translate to help me if they didn't understand.

    P.S. Only place I can find it in Hurstville is in Wellmay Asian Mart next to the Coffee Club Westfield

      If you ever want to try again, it's called 元貝(pronounced yuan bei) or 乾瑤柱 (gone yiu chu)

  • Any good Asian supermarket should have them. Eg Tong Li, Miracle

  • I used to get them in a Chinese herbal place in Hurstville.

  • A couple places in Chinatown sell them if you're close to the city.
    Dried scallops are more expensive items so not all Chinese groceries would stock them.

  • Thanks, I'll take a look at some of the recommendations here.
