Re: lobster tails...suggestions?
I do mine 2 ways , But cook them the same way , First to get the resturant look , you cut the back of the shell from the beginning of the tail to the second to last "shell piece" leaving one shell piece and the tail to hold the shell together. you then break the underside so you can push the meat back from the front of the tail and open the top to get it to lay on the shell , split the meat 1/2 way down . Or you can just cut them in half (this is what I do)
Boil a pot of water with salt , lemon and lime wedges in it (squeeze them out into the water first ), put tails in ... Forget the clock , keep boiling until the steam smells like what you want to eat . Do Not put your face over the steam simply "wave" some steam toward your nose. If you prefer you can broil for 1 min to "crust" the tops but I never do .
Melt your butter , add some lemon juice and a pinch of garlic and just enjoy
Also works well for shrimp and crab legs !
