Maine Lobster Dinner

My family and I are finally in Maine, since it's been a year since I've been here, it clearly means that a tradition lobster dinner was in order. Clearly this meal doesn't actually need a recipe. It's more about what components my family includes and the overall experience.

Lobster Dinner

Lobster
Steamers
Corn
Salad

Obviously the main component to any lobster dinner is the lobster itself. My family goes to Wolff lobster farm and get 1 large lobster for everyone. We usually just steam the lobsters for about 20 minutes in lightly salted water. Although in times of desperate need when all of Biddeford Pools water has been shut off, we have resorted to steaming the lobsters in a pot of ocean water, which is actually what our lobster man suggests to people how ask him how to cook them. My family also likes to include some steamers from wolffs and some locally grown corn. Lastly my mom throws together a salad with fresh veggies to attempt to make the meal a little bit healthier.

I know this post is short and not really a recipe. But I finally got to spend the day with my roommate who I haven't been able to see all summer. So I spent the day at the beach, kayaking around biddeford pool and catching up with one of my best friend just a week before we go back to school. So till tomorrow,
Keep Cooking Brooklyn!
