John Dory Oyster Bars Lobster Roll
- 4 (1 1/4-pound) hard-shell Maine lobsters
- 1/4 pound unsalted butter
- 1 ounce green lobster roe
- 3 egg yolks
- 1/4 cup white wine vinegar
- 2-3 cups sunflower oil (vegetable oil will also work)
- 1 tablespoon celery seeds
- kosher salt, to taste
- 6 hot dog buns, split down the top, in the New England style
- 1/4 cup red onion, peeled and finely diced
- 1/2 cup celery, peeled and finely diced
- 2 tablespoons dill, roughly chopped
- 1/4 pound lobster roe butter or unsalted butter, plus a little extra soft, unsalted butter for brushing the buns
- sea salt, to taste
- cayenne pepper
- You may either steam or boil the lobsters.
- At 1 1/4 pound each, the lobsters should take 8 minutes to cook.
- If you choose to boil the lobsters, use a pot large enough to comfortably fit all of the lobsters, or cook them in batches.
- The water should be salty, like the sea.
- Once cooked, chill the lobsters immediately in ice water.
- Leave them in the ice water only long enough to stop the cooking process.
- Remove them from the ice water and place in the fridge.
- When the lobsters have chilled all the way through, pick all of the meat from the shell and cut into rustic chunks, approximately 1-inch square.
- Make sure to get the deliciously sweet meat out of the knuckles!
- Its worth the hassle.
