How to cook a lobster

Step 1/3

• salt

• large pot

Bring a large pot of water to boil over high heat. Salt generously.

Step 2/3

• 2 lobster

• cutting board
• knife

Place the lobster on a cutting board and stun it with a hard blow to the head using the back of a knife. Drop the lobster headfirst into boiling water, then cover, and bring back to a full boil. Uncover and simmer for approx. 4 min.

Step 3/3

• slotted spoon
• large bowl

Meanwhile, prepare an ice bath in a large bowl. Remove the lobster from the pot with a slotted spoon and transfer to the ice bath to prevent cooking further. Once cool enough to handle, remove the rubber bands from the claws, and enjoy!

Enjoy your meal!
