Content: How to pick out a lobster
Lobsters are harder shelled in the winter months than the summer, so they are harder to crack, but winter lobsters have more meat on em, too, so there’s a pro and a con either way you slice it. To feed one person, you’ll need at least a 1.5 pound lobster, 2 to be safe. As Laurel pointed out, in Maine they’ll often steam mussels and clams alongside the lobsters to fill out the meal. And don’t forget the boiled potatoes and corn on the cob! ( Unless you’re on a date, and then you’ll probably want to skip the corn.) Get a feisty one. Don’t let that old lady at the fish counter try to sell you a lazy lobster. They’re all wild-caught, mostly off the coast of Maine where they have strict regulations to prevent over-fishing (or over-lostering). No such thing as a farmed lobster. FYI.
