    Place the connective muscle from scallops, the shallots, the wine, and 3 cups water in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil. Lower the heat and simmer for 15 minutes. Strain and discard the solids.

  2. Step 2

    Pour the liquid into a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil. Add the endive and return to a boil. Add the scallops and the tarragon, stir once to separate the scallops. Return barely to a simmer without stirring.
