BOILED MAINE LOBSTER

Boiled Maine Lobster image

Provided by Tyler Florence

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

Ingredients

1 gallon water
3 fresh thyme sprigs
6 fresh flat leaf parsley sprigs
2 bay leaves
1 lemon
1 cup dry white wine
1 tablespoon black peppercorns
1/4 cup sea salt
4 (2-pound) lobsters
2 sticks unsalted butter, softened

Steps:

To make a court-bouillon: Pour 1 gallon of water into a 16-quart stock pot over medium heat. Tie the thyme, parsley and bay leaves together with kitchen string to make a bouquet garni. Place the herb bundle in the stock pot and secure the end of the string to the pot handle for easy removal. Cut the lemon in half and squeeze the juice into the water, then drop in the lemons. Add wine, peppercorns and sea salt. Bring to a rolling boil.
Cut off the rubber bands that secure the lobster claws. Place live lobsters in the freezer for 15 minutes to disable movement. Plunge lobsters head first into the stock pot, cover, and boil for 15 minutes. The lobster shells will be red and the tails will curl up when done. Remove lobsters from boiling liquid with tongs.
In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Bring to a boil until the milk solids have separated and sunk to the bottom of the pan. Ladle out the clarified butter and place in a warm cup until the lobster is done.

Categories Food & Cooking Ingredients Seafood Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 4

Ingredients

Court-Bouillon
6 live lobsters (about 1 1/2 pounds each)
Cilantro-Parsley Pesto, for serving
English Salad Cream, for serving

Steps:

Put court-bouillon into a large stockpot. Cover, and bring to a boil over high heat. Working in batches, plunge lobsters headfirst into water. Cover; return to a low boil. Cook until bright red and cooked through, 7 to 10 minutes. Using tongs, transfer lobsters to a platter.
Using a kitchen towel to protect your hands, twist off tail and claws of 1 lobster; discard body. Using kitchen shears, cut along length of tail to make it easier to remove meat. Set tail aside. Separate claws from knuckles; twist and pull off pincers. With back of a knife, crack knuckle end of claw to loosen shell; remove meat. Push knuckle meat out of shell. Reserve for another use. Repeat with remaining lobsters. Refrigerate tails until ready to serve, up to 1 day. Serve with pesto and salad cream.
