While touring the Spokane, Washington area, I found a local supermarket called Yokes Fresh Market which was a real gem of a store. I have been amazed at the variety of local grocers offering all kinds of organic produce and meats. The Yokes I visited had a one day special of Maine lobsters at $11.99 per pound. I realize this was no bargain but it was live Maine lobsters. I simply boiled it in sea salted water and served it with clarified butter. To me that is the way to have lobster.
I served this with a Caesar Salad (without the croutons).
Boiled Lobster
Makes 1 serving
1 lobster (1 1/4 - 2 pounds)
3 tablespoons sea salt
2 tablespoons clarified butter, melted
Fill a large pot with water (at least 3 quarts of water) and bring to a boil. Add salt and stir to dissolve. Plunge lobster in boiling water, head first and cook for 10-15 minutes depending on size. Allow to rest for 5 minutes after removing from water.
Serve with melted, clarified butter.
