If you want to make the most out of the lobster you bought, a Lobster Bisque Recipe is what you’re looking for.

Lobster Bisque is a thick, creamy, highly-seasoned soup, and basically it’s a method of extracting every bit of flavor from Lobster, usually from parts not good enough to eat by otherwise.I have tried many different recipes, trying to find the ultimate Lobster bisque recipe, and although most lobster bisque recipes are quite similar, some are naturally better than the others.When I was about to post my Lobster bisque recipe, I came across this site that presents the same recipe, but as a video.As this site is about the passion for food and not about ego, I’m presenting the other site’s video, as it might be easier to follow.

Perfectly cooked lobster is surely one of life simplest pleasures, but how to cook lobster?

The most important thing when it comes to lobsters is the freshness.

If we were able to just take a lobster from the ocean straight to the kitchen, well, that is how to cook lobster.

The most popular ways to cook lobster is either to boil the lobster or to steam it.

When it comes to boiling a lobster the best way to cook lobster is to put it in the water when it’s still alive.
French chefs through them into boiling water; other chefs had adopted a more humane method and they kill it just before throwing them to the boiling water.

The truth is that both methods are not too humane, and yet, you get the best taste when the lobster is still alive when you start boiling it.

So, how to cook lobster in a humane way?

Use a pot deep enough to hold 6 liters of salted water (You can tell when the water is salty enough by throwing a raw egg into the pot. If the egg floats the water are salty enough)
Put a baking stone or any kind of a roasting rack at the bottom of the pot, and place the lobster on it.
By doing it you prevent the lobster from touching the bottom of the pan and it will not be burned as the pan heats up. (You insert the lobster to the pot when the water are still at room temperature)

When you start to boil the water, use a gentle heat, gradually raise the temperature of the water to around 90°F, at which point the lobster will be fast asleep.

At this stage (the best way is to check the water’s temperature as not all lobsters snores) turn up the heat until the water reaches a gentle simmer.

This cooking method is not only the most humane way to cook lobster; it also brings out the best results.

The lobster’s meat comes out succulent and tender, as it didn’t experience any trauma when entering the water (the trauma causes the lobster to secrete adrenaline, which ends up in a less succulent meat)

Bear in mind that The Only Way to cook lobster for a great result is by buying it alive.(And remember to be careful with the claws as there is no lobster served in the E.R)

And one last tip: Whether you’re having a summer cookout or a black-tie affair, fresh lobster delivered overnight makes all the different.

Indulge yourself in succulent, fresh live Maine lobsters, delivered directly from the ocean to your home.

The purpose of this article is to present a humane, rewarding method for how to cook lobster.
