Lobster is an all-time favourite dish, made popular by the more exotic destinations, but one that soon became a firm favourite for us Brits. Two of the most commonly used varieties come from America and Europe, with America's beauties being said to be the biggest and tastiest of them all!
When it comes to cooking lobster dishes, many a chef will tell you to cook from live for the absolute best results. Furthermore, it's important to keep it simple by either grilling, baking, boiling or steaming your lobster, using very little seasoning. Without doubt, lobster is, and has always been, considered a more luxury cuisine; therefore, it really is best not to overdo the cooking of it. Why not try a simple butter sauce or lemon juice to serve with your lobster? Or, for something more wholesome, perhaps a classic risotto or rice accompaniment? Moreover, don't forget to try one of the most delicious recipes of all, the stunning Lobster Thermidor (that's grilled and smothered with a cheese and mustard sauce to you and I).
Classics aside, there is also a whole new collection of lobster recipes set to get your tastebuds tingling; recipes by a surge of new-age chefs taking the restaurant scene by storm with their fusion menus. One that comes to mind in particular is a dish called Marine Lobster Benedict. Yes, you read that right, I'm talking about grilled lobster, on a bed of steamed asparagus and toasted muffins, accompanied by a fine cut of bacon, hollandaise sauce, and lemon and parsley to taste have you ever heard of anything so delicious!
If you're new to the delights of lobster, or its an old-age favourite as it is mine, why not try an equally lavish London venue to match your superb palate? The truly exquisite restaurants of House 19 and House 21 in private member's club Home House, Portman Square, both put on legendary lobster nights on a monthly basis.
This month, you could try
The Restaurant in House 19 to choose classic grilled with garlic butter or barnaise and fries whilst taking in the stunning vista of Portman Square.
Or be drawn to the deliciously aromatic dish of lobster, Asian spices and rice recipe created by chef Malwin Moe in the stunning surroundings of The Octagon Dining Room, House 21.
