Instructions
 

Lobster Bisque

  • Gather your ingredients together.
  • From the soft side of the shell, cut the lobster tail(s) in half lengthwise.
  • Melt half the butter in a pan, add the scallions and onion and cook for 5 minutes, or until soft.
  • Add the carrots and cook for 2 minutes.
  • Add the lobster halves and cook for 3-5 minutes.
  • In a large soup pot add the fish stock, parsley, bay leaf, peppercorns, and water.
  • Add the lobsters to the stock pot and bring to a boil, reduce the heat and simmer for 20 minutes, skimming the surface as required.
  • While the pot is simmering cut the tomatoes into quarters and puree in a blender.
  • Remove the lobsters from the stock, cool slightly and remove the meat from the shells.
  • Cut 4-6 thin slices from the lobster to use as a garnish and set aside.
  • Set the lobster meat aside, crush the shells and return to the pan. Continue simmering for an additional 40 minutes.
  • Strain the stock, with 2 layers of damp muslin or cheesecloth.
  • In a blender, blend the remaining lobster flesh with a little of the tomato puree until smooth.
  • In a separate pan, mix the flour and remaining butter to a paste.
  • Add the pureed lobster to the pot along with the flour paste, tomato puree, sherry, cream, nutmeg and salt and pepper, to taste. Mix well.
  • Add the tarragon and the remaining stock and cook, stirring continuously, over high heat until the soup boils and thickens.
  • Reduce the heat and simmer gently for 5 minutes. If the soup is too thin cook down until you get the desired thickness.
  • Season to taste and serve garnished with the reserved lobster and some sprigs of tarragon, if desired.

Fish Stock

  • In a large stockpot combine all the ingredients and cover with water. Bring to a boil and reduce to simmer and cook all day long on simmer. Strain with a fine-mesh strainer.
