Here are some helpful tips to help you enjoy your Lobster experience.
One pound of Lobster will yield approximately 1/3 pound of cooked lobster meat.
Cooking:
- Place tail in boiling salt water.
- Return water to boiling and simmer for five to ten minutes, depending on
the size.
- The shell of a Florida Lobster turns a bright red-orange when cooked.
- Lobster meat is delicate and cooks quickly so be sure not to overcook. Meat should change from
translucent to opaque when done.
Heating cold cooked lobster:
- Place tails on a rack over a small amount of boiling water in a covered
saucepan or steamer (Do not immerse rack in water).
- Steam just long enough to heat thoroughly.
