Description Preparation
Description
Tristan da Cunha lobsters are widely regarded as some of the finest cold-water lobsters in the world. This rock lobster is found only in the icy South Atlantic waters around the most remote inhabited archipelago on Earth—the volcanic Tristan da Cunha Islands. The lobsters live on the rocky substrata from the shore down to a depth of around 200 meters and are hand-harvested by fishermen using sustainable methods. The tails are flash-frozen at peak freshness to preserve their flavor and texture. Tristan lobster tails are prized for their pearl-white meat, remarkably sweet, clean flavor, and firm yet delicate texture. Steam, grill, or bake; butterfly and bake at high heat, but don’t overcook. Treat yourself or send as a gift to another seafood connoisseur who will appreciate these treasured tails.

Preparation
Lobster Tail Preparation: Boiling
Our lobster tails are a true delicacy, with flavor that lends itself to a variety of versatile preparation methods. In our opinion, boiling may be the most effective way to get consistently perfect results — just follow these simple instructions for unbeatable quality!

DIRECTIONS:
  • Fill a pot with just enough water to cover your lobsters, place lobster tails aside for the moment.
  • Add other seasonings to the water if you like, these are not necessary for cooking, though.
  • Bring the water to a boil and carefully drop in your tails.
  • Once the water returns to a soft boil, reduce the heat.
  • Set your cooking timer to the appropriate time (see below), and simmer uncovered for the specified time.
  • Remove all tails from the water.
  • Pick a tail to test for doneness. Using a knife, cut through the shell into the thickest part of the tail meat.
    The meat of a fully-cooked lobster tail is white with no sign of a translucent, grayish color. If you detect any
    translucency, or the roe (eggs) still appears black and shiny, put the tails back in the water for one-minute
    intervals until done. Err on the side of undercooking, you can always cook a bit longer to ensure perfect results.
    • COOKING TIME:
    Boil 5-6 oz. tails for 3-4 minutes.
