Lobster has long been thought of as a staple of haute cuisine and a dish
of indulgence, something that only a true expert in the kitchen can
perfectly execute.
From Matt Dean Pettit, chef and owner of Rock Lobster Food Co., comes a
collection of more than 100 simple and delicious lobster recipes showing
how fun, easy, and stress-free cooking with lobster can be.
A lobster lover since he was a little boy, Matt Dean Pettit started Rock
Lobster Food Co. after an eye-opening experience on the East Coast. He
had eaten lobster everywhere he could find it, from fresh-off-the-dock
to dive bars, and was left wondering why lobster could be so readily
available (and so reasonably priced) at the source but reserved for
high-end restaurants across the rest of the country. He pledged then and
there to bring lobster to the masses.
The Great Lobster Cookbook includes more than 100 of Matt's best
recipes--from the famous Rock Lobster Roll and the Classic Lobster Boil
to Lobster Eggs Benny, Lobster Poutine, and even a mouthwatering recipe
for Vanilla Bean Lobster Ice Cream. Star chefs, such as Mark McEwan and
Roger Mooking, also share their favorite lobster dishes.
With easy-to-follow recipes, notes on lobster anatomy, and basic cooking
techniques, Matt demystifies the lobster, highlighting its versatility
and taking readers on a cross-country journey into its world, from claw
to tail.
A new cookbook classic for every lobster lover, The Great Lobster
Cookbook shows that lobster doesn't need to be reserved for special
occasions. Join the Crustacean Nation and get cracking.
