Lobster (recipes)


Although there many lobster varieties around the world, the two main ones are the American (or Maine) lobster, which is considered the biggest and best, and the European lobster, which tends to be smaller. They can be used interchangeably in recipes.Lobster is often sold cooked, but it' s better to buy them live and cook them yourself. The most humane way to kill a live lobster is to place the lobster in a plastic bag in the freezer for two hours (which will make it unconscious), then to immediately place it in boiling water. Alternatively, using a very sharp knife, cut through the nerve centres just behind the head and at the juction of the body and the tail.Lobsters are usually a greeny-blue colour and turn reddish-orange when cooked. As they' re very expensive, the best way to enjoy the sweet flesh is to cook them simply, either halved and grilled or baked, or boiled or steamed, and served with a butter sauce. However, there are numerous preparations for lobster including the classic lobster thermidor - grilled lobster halves served with a mustard cheese sauce.Lobster ?l' ArmoricaineGoan lobster
