Do you know how to cook lobster..........part deux

The second and arguably the best way i know how to cook a lobster
is to steam them. Steaming lobsters takes a little longer than boiling
them, but many will argue that the tastier and more succulent meat
is well worth the extra time. It's only a few minutes longer anyways.

You can use the same pot used for boiling a lobster, however you
will need to add a steaming rack to the bottom. They also make a
steamer insert for lobster pots as well.

Fill the pot with 2-3 inches of water and add about 1 tablespoon
of salt. Place the lid on the pot and bring to a boil. Once the water
has reached a good rolling boil, place the lobster on the rack and
replace the lid. As you would with boiling a lobster, don't start
timing until a boil has been reached again.

As I said in the beginning it will take slightly longer to steam a
lobster. It takes about 12-14 minutes for the first pound in weight
and the about 3 more minutes for each additional half pound.

Once done remove the lobster and drain. Then serve immediately
while it is still hot. If you are not going to serve the lobster right
away you will want to take it from the pot and put it directly into
some ice water to stop the cooking process. Once it cools drain and
refrigerate until needed, but not more that 2-3 days at the most.
I'll have some more recipes for you later.
