Poll of the Week - 7.26.2010

Whether your summer refuge is the Hamptons or the Jersey Shore, the only relief from the dog days of summer is a trip to the beach!


And what would a beach getaway be without lounge chairs, tall drinks, and lobster?


The sweet, pink meat from a lobster’s claws and tail is just as wonderful dunked in butter as it is in a creamy bisque or slipped into soft ravioli pillows. But even if you’re not able to indulge in a summer-time, beach-side lobster extravaganza, there are still plenty of ways to get your fill of the ocean’s greatest crustacean!

In this week’s “Poll of the Week”, Little Scarlet wants to know what’s your favorite lobster dish?

  2. Lobster.......sooo good on so many different levels.
    The most indulgent way to eat lobster is......lightly poached in clarified butter. Do decadent... so dreamy and delicious!

  3. Ugh, I am SO over lobster mac'n'cheese. That whole adding lobster to everything to make it decadent trend is done.

    Also, blue crab is a finer crustacean. Much more tender, sweet meat. I do like lobster, but every time I try to eat a loster roll I end up gagging because I cannot properly chew the thing. weird.

  4. Yeah, just simple with butter is the way to go.

  5. The best summer lobster is steamed and served cold with lemon mayonnaise with the barest hint of tarragon. This should be eaten in a wet bathing suit with bare feet at a table in the shade!

  7. We’ve spent last winter down in the Bahamas where we had lobster aplenty. Our favourite ways to eat it were Lobsterghetti, Lobster stir fry and Lobster omlettes.
