Revealing a Tasty Lobster Affair



Bulky and pulpy lobsters have always interested me since I was a kid. Being a resident of Maine, I have seen how fishermen here take careful steps to pick the world’s most coveted shellfish. If I am asked to vote on lobsters I would definitely give Maine picks a 10/10. Now, you must be thinking that I am like any other partial guy. Well!! Let me clear your assumptions first. Maine lobsters are the world’s favorite; they are tastiest and also the fleshiest. Being a Maine guy, I should first of all clarify the reason for Maine picks to taste better than others. 

Apart from being fleshy and healthy, Maine lobsters are one step up when it comes to comparing their taste with the spiny counter-parts. If you ask me then, I will say that meat extracted from Maine picks taste a bit sweeter. The great taste of Maine lobsters has evolved from its habitat; the chilled and dark Atlantic waters. A majority of restaurants are selling seafood delicacies to offer gourmands the opportunity to taste the much flavorful Maine picks. Though a bit pricy, I will personally suggest you to not compromise on its rich taste, even if it costs a few more bucks.

Well!! That doesn’t mean you will have to bear up extra costs every time you want to have lobsters. How about preparing them at home? Yes, this will help you save at least 40% of the dining bill. There are actually some innovative seafood dinner ideas with lobster tails, which you can try in your own kitchen; I can share a couple of them with you:

Firstly let us go simple with baked lobster tails: 


  • Pre-heat oven at 350 degrees
  • Use a knife to cut the tail in halves
  • Spread an aluminum foil
  • Place lobster tails with the shell facing downwards
  • Drizzle molten butter on the tails
  • Squeeze lemon extracts on the tails
  • Add kosher salt and pepper for flavor
  • Spread another aluminum foil on the tails
  • Place the entire thing inside an oven and bake for 20 minutes

For a detailed process you can consider barbeque chili Maine lobster

  • Raw lobster tails, 6
  • Finely chopped red chili pepper
  • Fish sauce (Thai), 2 teaspoon
  • Finely chopped coriander
  • Sesame oil, 2 teaspoon
  • Olive oil, 1 tablespoon
  • Lime juice
  • Honey, 2 tablespoon
  • Cumin, 2 teaspoon

For the marinade: first of all, take a bowl and mix all ingredients in it. Place lobster tails on a plate and pour the marinade over them. Now cover the entire thing and place it in the refrigerator. Take out the plate from the refrigerator 60 minutes later. Leave it for some time. Next, place Maine lobster tails on a moderately high barbeque. Cook each side for 5 minutes. The lobster tails should reveal a red hue; which means they are done.
