This is your sign to make lobster rolls 🦞 Summer is right around the corner, and I’m switching up my usual lobster roll routine with a warm, buttery East Coast classic. I teamed up with @sobeys because Canadian lobster season has officially washed ashore in stores, making it easier than ever to bring those seaside flavours home, even when you’re in the city. Here’s what you’ll need ⤵️ 4 Live Lobsters Compliments New England-style Hot Dog Buns Salted Butter 1 Shallot Chopped Finely Chives Coarse Salt Bring 6 litres of water to a rolling boil in a large pot with 3–4 tablespoons of coarse salt. Add the lobsters and cook for 10 minutes, then remove them. You want to undercook them as you’ll finish them on the stovetop in butter! 😉 Let them cool for 10–15 minutes. To shell your lobster, remove meat from the tail, claw, and knuckle, breaking it into bite-sized pieces. You may need seafood shears to break the shells. In a hot saucepan, melt 6 tablespoons of salted butter and sauté one minced shallot for 2–3 minutes. Stir in the lobster meat, then heat for 2 minutes to finish cooking. Toast the buttered hot dog buns on both sides, fill with warm, buttered lobster, and serve with potato chips, potato salad, or whatever floats your boat. Let’s raise a lobster roll to Sobeys for being the trusted destination for high-quality, locally sourced lobster and for supporting our local fishermen! Fresh lobsters available now at your nearest Sobeys store. #ad #SobeysPartner #lobster
