Gordon Ramsay How-to -Guides

Content: Make sure your lobster is alive when you are ready to cook it, and make the process of death to finished cooking is as quick as possible. It is for these reasons for both flavor and health that I recommend avoiding pre-packaged lobster meat. Squeeze Body Check if Hard Shell or Soft Shell
Squeeze the sides of the lobster’s body to determine if it’s a hard shell or softshell. A softshell lobster will yield to pressure, while a hard-shell lobster will be hard and brittle. Check to See How Much Lobster Weigh
In my recipes, I include the weight of the lobsters since lobsters can vary significantly in weight. If you are serving your lobster with clarified butter, you will want to know how much lobster meat you have to have enough clarified butter for you and your guests. If you are serving soft-shell lobster, you may consider buying larger ones or buying two lobsters per person if the price is affordable. Markets don’t usually advertise if they are selling hard-shell or soft-shell, but you can always ask an employee in the seafood department. Cooking Lobster Tips
There’s a lot of information out there on the best way to cook lobster, and unfortunately, much of that information is conflicting. Although cooking methods can vary by recipe, I have found that the following process is the best place to start.
