HOW TO COOK FROZEN LOBSTER TAILS

*Valentine Collection*

BOILED LOBSTER TAILS: Place frozen lobster tails in large kettle of boiling salted water (1 teaspoon salt per quart of water). When water returns to boil, reduce heat so water boils gently. Cover and begin counting time. Boil lobster tails 3 minutes longer than their individual weight in ounces. For example, boil 4-ounce tails for 7 minutes.

To remove from shell, drain off hot water. Immediately drench with cold water. Using scissors, cut lengthwise down each edge of thin membrane and remove. Grasp meat between thumb and fingers and gently pull tail out of shell in one piece.

Serve lobster meat with melted butter or seafood sauce. Or, cut up meat and use in cocktails, salads, main dishes.
