I ve paid over ten dollars for one of these lobster rolls in cape cod and it wasn t half as good or half as big as the ones my mom taught me to make. 1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill. 3 celery stalks diced. 1 bunch scallions sliced.

Mix together with a rubber spatula until everything is incorporated. 16 mini brioche hot dog buns or rolls. Using a paring knife cut a 1 1 2 inch round plug out of the top of each roll leaving a 1 2 inch border all around. Add the lobster to the pot and boil until bright red about 7 to 10 minutes.

Use tongs to remove the lobster from the water and place in the ice bath to stop the cooking. When the lobster is cool enough to handle break apart the tail and claws and remove the meat. Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper. Used 12 whole wheat hawaiian rolls instead of 24 and doubled the recipe so essentially quadrupled the amount of filling per roll.

1 pounds cooked lobster meat diced. In a medium bowl combine the mayonnaise lemon zest and juice tarragon celery capers and 1 4 teaspoon salt. Arrange bread rounds on rimmed baking sheet and broil until butter starts to brown rotating sheet for even browning about 2 minutes. I grew up in nova scotia where seafood was cheap.

My mom and grandmothers had some pretty inventive ways of making lobster not boring now lobster is a treat and costs a fortune. This is a wonderful summer or winter treat and makes a fancy. Spread some garlic butter on each bread round. Using a small spoon carefully hollow out the rolls.

Also omitted the shrimp and used all lobster. 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley.
