Steps:
- Fill a pan with lukewarm water and place over high heat. Place the lobster in the pan and cover. Once the water has come to the boil, cook the lobster for ten minutes or until it no longer has any blue hue and has turned a deep red-orange color. Remove the lobster from the pan and leave to cool.
- Once cool you can prepare the lobster in the traditional manner: with a sharp knife make an incision at the point where the head joins the body and cut down the length of the lobster towards the tail. Make sure that you have cut right the way through the body. Now turn the lobster 180 degrees and cut from the original incision back through the head. With you fingers gradually prise the shell apart so that it falls into two halves. Remove the front claws and set aside. With your index finger prise the meat out of the shell (trying to keep it in one piece, again working from the tail upwards. Replace the meat in the shell (this process makes it easier for your guests to keep their fingers clean) and repeat with the second half. Using a cleaver or hammer crack both sides of the claws. Remove the surrounding shell and extract the meat in a single piece. Arrange the two halves of lobster on a plate together with the claw meat and serve with mayonnaise, which you can make in the following way:
- Put eggs, mustard, pinch of salt, grinding of pepper and a small squeeze of lemon juice/vinegar in a basin and beat well with a wooden spoon, beater or whisk. Start adding the oil, drop by drop to begin with, stirring all the time. When the mixture starts to emulsify you may add more oil in steady dribblets but keep stirring until you get the required jelly-like substance, which is the consistency that proper mayonnaise should be. Finally test for more seasoning. Refrigerate until ready to use.

Steps:
- Add water to a large pot to a depth of 2-3 inches. Be sure that the pot is big enough to accommodate a large colander. Bring the water to a boil over high heat.
- Put the lobsters in the colander and place the colander inside the pot. Cover the pot and steam the lobsters for 15 minutes. Remove the colander with the lobsters and allow them to cool. Refrigerate the lobsters until fully chilled, about 2 hours.
- For the mayonnaise: Whisk together the egg yolk, garlic, a pinch of salt, and half of the lemon juice in a medium bowl. Combine the oils in a measuring cup with a spout. Add the oil to the yolk about 1 teaspoon at a time, whisking constantly. The mixture will thicken and emulsify. After you have added about 1/4 cup of the oil, you can begin to slowly drizzle in the remaining oil as you continue to whisk until you have a thick, glossy mayonnaise. Season with salt and thin with a little lemon juice if you like. Transfer the mayonnaise into a serving bowl. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use. If using herbs, stir them into the mayonnaise just before serving.
- Put the lobsters on a cutting board, belly side down. Using a large kitchen knife, cut each lobster in half lengthwise. Crack the claws and knuckles with a nutcracker or by thwacking the back of the knife against the shells.
- Arrange each lobster on a plate, cut side up, and add a lemon half to each plate. Pass the mayonnaise at the table.

Steps:
- To cook lobsters, pour about 2 inches of water in the bottom of a large kettle or steamer. Add salt, peppercorns, red-pepper flakes, bay leaf and thyme. Bring water to a boil. Place lobsters in kettle and cover tightly. Return to a boil and cook over high heat for about 12 minutes. Remove lobsters and let them cool.
- To make mayonnaise, combine egg yolk, mustard, vinegar, salt and pepper in a mixing bowl. Mix well with a wire whisk.
- Add oil in a thin stream while beating vigorously with a wire whisk. When mixture is thick and smooth, stir in remaining ingredients and blend well. Cover until ready to serve.
- Before serving, split lobsters in half lengthwise and crack claws. Remove and discard small sacs near the eyes. Remove intestines through the middle of the tail. Serve at room temperature with mayonnaise.
BOILED MAINE LOBSTER
Each summer, many lobsters' tough shells are replaced by thin ones. These lobsters, called "shedders," are a delight to eat -- it takes no effort to get at the tail and claw meat. Still, it is smart to keep a pair of crackers at hand, just in case. Boiling lobsters in court-bouillon, a staple for poaching seafood, makes them quite flavorful in the absence of seawater.

Steps:
- Place onions, carrots, and celery in a large stockpot. Make a bouquet garni: Gather thyme, parsley, and bay leaf; tie into a bundle with kitchen string, then add to the stockpot.
- Fill stockpot 2/3rds full with cold water; set over high heat. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat, and let simmer about 30 minutes.
- Add white wine and peppercorns; simmer about 15 minutes more. Return to a boil.
- Depending on size of stockpot, quickly add 4 to 6 lobsters to boiling court-bouillon, making sure the liquid covers all the lobsters. Allow court-bouillon to return to a boil again, and cook lobsters about 12 minutes. Using tongs, remove lobsters, and transfer to a platter or large bowl. Repeat with remaining lobsters, working in batches if necessary.
- Using kitchen scissors, trim the tip of each lobster claw; allow the liquid to drain, and discard. Serve lobsters with melted butter and lemons.
BOILED LOBSTER WITH LOBSTER MAYONNAISE
Here is a recipe for a cold lobster appetizer or main course that Mark Bittman and I ginned up for a feast-in-a-day project for The Times's Sunday Magazine in 2012. You boil the lobsters off and allow them to cool, then reduce the leftover stock to make a flavoring agent for mayonnaise. Add some chopped lobster knuckles to that, and serve a dollop of it alongside the claw and tail meat, perhaps with herbs or a chopped salad. It's fancy food made easy.

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil; salt it. Cook lobsters until red, 12 to 15 minutes. Remove lobsters and allow stock to reduce over medium heat.
- Split tail, remove meat, and put it back in the shell. Remove the claw meat. Set both aside. Remove and chop knuckle meat, and set aside for the mayonnaise.
- Put the yolks and vinegar in a food processor. While it runs, add the neutral oil. When emulsion forms, add olive oil.
- Remove to a bowl, stir in cooled stock and knuckle meat; add salt and pepper.
- Arrange each of the tails and claws on a plate and serve with the mayonnaise.
