Is this how your suppose to cook lobster?

Well I'm suppose to cook me and my gf lobster. So I did re-search and even watched a youtube video.





So here is the steps I have and tell me if their correct.


1) adding onions, herbs, peppers, %26amp; other good stuff to the boiling pot.


2) then you dunk the Lobster in like Lebron James and put on the lid.


3) have it in there for 8-10 minutes until the shell is bright red

...cooking time depends on size.





You forgot: Garlic, butter, lemon for dipping.





lobster bibs...





Really good bread !





You also forgot to invite me !





Enjoy.





Did I mention the garlic ?Is this how your suppose to cook lobster?
It麓s about right, although the cooking time depends on the type of lobster. Big Red lobster does take from 7 to 9 minutes to cook, while florida lobster (not sure of the name) takes about 5min, until the shell turns bright red(Red lobster) or orange(florida lobster) .


Hope it helps...good luck
from cooking school, we always kill the lobster first before cooking it. killing it is easy, just stick a skewer up its eyes all thru its head





then after that, i think while in its raw state, you need to twist a portion of its tail and pull out the entrails. this is better done when it is raw, because when the entrails are cooked, they dont go in just 1 pull.
It can take longer than 10 min, sometimes 15 depending on the size, but aside from the bright red exterior the tail will curl up when its done. You can also steam, bake or grill them.
yep,and i bet it will taste fantastic!
