- 3 Steps
Boiling a lobster may seem simple. That’s because it is! But we have a few tips to ensure that your lobster is always cooked to perfection.
Here’s how you do it
-
Step1
After cooking for the recommended time (usually 8-10 minutes for a 1-pound lobster), place your lobster belly-down on a cutting board.
-
Step2
Inspect the shell. It should be bright red. Using a chef’s knife, split the shell where the tail meets the body.
-
Step3
If the meat is white, the lobster is fully cooked. If it’s still translucent, back into the pot it goes.
