My mom and grandmothers had some pretty inventive ways of making lobster not boring now lobster is a treat and costs a fortune.
Mini lobster roll recipe.
Spread some garlic butter on each bread round.
Even though both celery and dill pickles provide that added crunch that pairs with the lobster so perfectly the bite from the dill pickle really takes these rolls to the next level.
Arrange bread rounds on rimmed baking sheet and broil until butter starts to brown rotating sheet for even browning about 2 minutes.
4 tablespoons unsalted butter melted.
Mix together with a rubber spatula until everything is incorporated.
I ve paid over ten dollars for one of these lobster rolls in cape cod and it wasn t half as good or half as big as the ones my mom taught me to make.
In a medium bowl combine the mayonnaise lemon zest and juice tarragon celery capers and 1 4 teaspoon salt.
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper.
1 bunch scallions sliced.
Used 12 whole wheat hawaiian rolls instead of 24 and doubled the recipe so essentially quadrupled the amount of filling per roll.
Using a small spoon carefully hollow out the rolls.
I grew up in nova scotia where seafood was cheap.
This is a wonderful summer or winter treat and makes a fancy.
Also omitted the shrimp and used all lobster.
Use tongs to remove the lobster from the water and place in the ice bath to stop the cooking.
16 mini brioche hot dog buns or rolls.
Using a paring knife cut a 1 1 2 inch round plug out of the top of each roll leaving a 1 2 inch border all around.
3 celery stalks diced.
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley.
One thing that gives these mini lobster rolls an elevated flavor is swapping out the celery for finely diced dill pickles.
Prepare an ice bath while the lobster cooks.
1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill.
