The Great Lobster Cookbook: From Claw to Tail, More Than 100 Recipes to Make At Home

Description

Lobster has long been thought of as a staple of haute cuisine, a dish of indulgence, and a testament to skill in the kitchen. But it doesn't have to be that way! Lobster doesn't need to be expensive, intimidating or difficult. In this cookbook, Matt Dean Pettit will show wannabe chefs how to cook lobster, stress-free, at home. It has everything readers need to know to start cooking lobster from scratch, from understanding lobster anatomy, to buying, storing, and preparing lobster at home. Recipes cover pastas, soups, salads, tacos, curries and lobster roll and boil.

MATT DEAN PETTIT is the chef and co-owner of Rock Lobster Food Co., founded in 2011. Originally a pop-up food market stall, Rock Lobster has quickly grown to two restaurants, a fresh-market, and a seafood product line, all based in downtown Toronto. The author lives in Toronto, ON.

Praise for Rock Lobster Food Co.: "If ever there was a local seafood resto truly reminiscent of the East coast, claws down, it's Rock Lobster. And yes, it's another terribly hip haunt that every self-respecting foodie must flock to pronto." --Dine.to
