A good recipe for a lobster roll is fresh lobster meat, mayo, and mayonnaise. Tastes just like New England because it’s created at home. It’s scrumptious!
LOBSTER ROLL RECIPE
My all-time favorite summertime dish is a lobster roll. That New England split-top hot dog bun with the mayonnaise-laden lobster salad has a certain charm.
Fresh, luscious lobster meat and lobster claws make this lobster roll recipe the greatest ever. I feel like I’ve been transported to New England every time I take a mouthful of the lobster and bun.
If you go out to eat, a single lobster sandwich can run you $20 to $25, but making your own would save you half that. This recipe cost me $20, and I made three red lobster rolls for that price.
HOW TO MAKE LOBSTER ROLLS?
Here’s how it’s done:
- The lobsters should be boiled and cooked. Let the lobster meat and claws cool, then chop them into pieces.
- Honey, lemon juice, salt, and freshly ground black pepper can all be used to season the lobster.
- Toast the sides of the buns on a grill to prepare the buns.
- Put the lobster salad in the baguette and toast it.
COOK’S TIPS
- For this dish, you’ll want to use fresh, live lobsters. The sweet, juicy, and delectable lobster meat imparts the most refined flavor when it’s new from the ocean. There are various supermarkets and seafood businesses where you may get live lobsters.
- If you cannot locate live lobsters, opt for frozen or cooked lobster tails.
- New England split-top hot dog buns are a must if you can get your hands on them.
