Garlic-Herb Butter

1 Garlic Clove, minced

1 tablespoon fresh Parsley, finely chopped

1 1/2 teaspoons fresh Chives, finely chopped

1 teaspoon Lemon Juice

1 cup Butter, softened

Mix ingredients together and blend. Chill until ready serve.

 

Lobster Boil

 1/4 cup Sea Salt

2 tablespoons Coriander Seeds

1 tablespoons Fennel Seeds

1 tablespoon Black Peppercorns

3 Bay Leaves

1 teaspoon Red Pepper Flakes

2 Yellow Onions, halved

4 stalks of Celery, cut into pieces

2 Tomatoes, chopped

1 Lemon, halved

2 heads Garlic

2 cups Dry White Wine

1 pound New Potatoes

2 Ears of Corn

2 Lobsters, live

2 quarts of Spring Water

1 loaf crusty bread

 

Add water, salt, coriander seeds, fennel seeds, peppercorns, bay leaves, red pepper flakes, onions, celery, tomatoes, lemon and garlic to pot.

Cover and bring to a boil. Add the wine, potatoes and corn then simmer for about 20 minutes until the potatoes are tender.

Now add lobsters!

Steam a lobster for 7 minutes per pound, for the first pound.

Add 3 minutes per pound for each additional pound thereafter.

Serve the lobster, corn and potatoes with the broth and buttered bread. The broth should be eaten so slurp away! The garlic-herb butter can be added to the bread, corn and potatoes even melted as a dipping sauce for your lobster.
