EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

Separate tail from body by breaking shell in half where tail and body meet. Cut away the membrane on the tail to expose meat. Discard the intestinal vein that runs through the tail and the small sac near the head of the lobster. Serve the green tomalley (liver) and coral roe (only in females) if desired. Twist the large claws away from the body of the lobster. Use a nutcracker to break open the claws. Remove meat from claws, tail and body.

Oh but their is so much mote meat than tou mentioned. In yje body you pull away from the back has chambers where the legs go into the bodies, if you get it all you will get about 2 more OZ of meat. Then myself, I like to slowly pull the meat out of the tail fins even. it takes finess and you have to split the thin shell on the bottom middle, crack open a little and grab the meat and slowly and gently pull side to side and it will come out with all 3 fins after you get seasoned at it. I grew up on the water in Boston, so I cut my teeth on lobster so I am told.
