Lobster
- 8 quarts water boiling
- 1 each lobsters
- 1/4 pound butter melted
- Everyone loves these delectable crustaceans, but many cooks are squeamish about placing them into boiling water alive, which is the only proper method of preparing them.
- Frankly, the easiest way to eliminate your guilt is to establish theirs by putting them on trial before they're cooked.
- The fact is, lobsters are among the most ferocious predators on the sea floor, and you're helping reduce crime in the reefs.
- Grasp the lobster behind the head, look it right in its unmistakably guilty eyestalks and say, "Where were you on the night of the 21st?
- ", then flourish a picture of a scallop or a sole and shout, "Perhaps this will refresh that crude neural apparatus you call a memory!"
- The lobster will squirm noticeably.
- It may even take a swipe at you with one of its claws.
- Incorrigible.
- Pop it into the pot.
- Justice has been served, and shortly you and your friends will be, too.
- After lobster is added to hot water, wait a while until bright red.
- Remove lobster from hot water.
- Bash lobster repeatedly with heavy object.
- Using fingers and implements pick out lobster chunks and plunge into melted butter.
