In Barbados,
the fisherman come to the rich
folks' houses to sell their daily catch of
lobster. The lobster itself is extremely
cheap, it's the beach house in Barbados that
will tend to make this meal a tad expensive.
You can buy lobster at your local
supermarket, but our experience with this
type of thing has not been encouraging. The
proletariat server asked us if we wanted him
to punch some holes in the bag so our
lobster could breath. . .
2 live lobsters (approximately
4 pounds
each:)
Butter
Meat is always much tastier
when the animal
is slaughtered while experiencing the most
intense terror of its life. So put a good 2.5
liters of water (per lobster) to boil and go
torture your lobster (be creative).
When the water is boiling,
put the lobsters in
tail first. If you do it this way you get to
watch its expression. While the lobsters are
boiling, melt some butter in a pan and make
two little dipping dishes for yourself and your
dinner companion (you may add garlic to this
butter depending on what you plans are for
after dinner).
When the lobster has boiled
for about ten
minutes (1.5 minutes per pound), remove
them from the water and put them on
separate plates. Put the dipping dish on the
same plate and serve.
Note: There are special utensils
for eating
lobster, but it is much more interesting to
see how your dinner companion manages
without them.
Serves 2 people who wear fur
and eat
lobster.
