Categories     appetizer

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

Sea salt
1 1 1/4-pound live lobster
2 fairly small ripe tomatoes
2 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, in small pieces
2 center slices from a round sourdough country bread, each 1/2-inch thick and cut in two
Freshly ground black pepper
2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
4 small sprigs basil

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the lobster, and boil for 5 to 6 minutes, until bright red. Remove the lobster, extract the tail and claw meat from the shell, and dice it. Set aside.
  • Cut the tomatoes in half horizontally, and squeeze the juice and seeds into a heavy 1-quart saucepan over low heat. Add the butter, whisking constantly, until it is warm and emulsifies with the tomato juice. Add the lobster meat to the saucepan, and set aside.
  • Lightly toast the bread. Spoon some the lobster meat onto each piece, and slowly spoon on the butter mixture. Sprinkle with salt and pepper, add a drizzle of olive oil and a sprig of basil.
  • Serve at once. Provide knives and forks because the crostini make for messy eating.

LOBSTER CROSTINI WITH BUTTERY TOMATO & CHAMPAGNE SAUCE RECIPE - (4.5/5)



Lobster Crostini with Buttery Tomato & Champagne Sauce Recipe - (4.5/5) image

Provided by ruthg

Number Of Ingredients 15

SAUCE:
3 large vine tomatoes
Pinch superfine sugar
6 tablespoons unsalted organic butter, divided
1 cup champagne, sparkling wine or Italian prosecco
Tabasco or Crystal hot sauce
Salt
Ground white pepper
Fresh lemon juice
CROSTINI:
1/2 cup Hollandaise sauce
Whole piece of tail meat from 1-pound lobster
1 small crusty white baguette, sliced
Fresh dill leaves, snipped
Freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • SAUCE: Cut 2 tomatoes in half and squeeze the seeds and juice into a small saucepan set over low heat. Cut the remaining tomato into very small pieces and add to the pot. Turn up heat to medium and cook for 2 to 3 minutes. Add sugar and 4 tablespoons butter and allow it to melt. Add champagne and simmer for 10 minutes. Pour mixture into a blender and blend until smooth. Pass blended mixture through a fine sieve into the same pot. Simmer over low heat until reduced by 2/3rd the original volume, about 40 to 50 minutes, until the consistency of tomato soup. Add remaining butter, a dash or two of Tabasco or Crystal hot sauce, and season to taste with a little salt and ground white pepper. You can also add a small squeeze of lemon if you like to brighten it up. CROSTINI: Cut lobster tail meat into small pieces. Lightly toast bread slices on both sides. Spread each slice with a teaspoon of hollandaise sauce and top with a lump or two of lobster meat. Drizzle with a teaspoon of the tomato champagne sauce and garnish with dill leaves. Season with a little black pepper and serve.

Tips:

  • Choose the right lobster. Look for lobsters that are heavy for their size and have bright, black eyes. You can also ask your fishmonger to help you select a good lobster.
  • Cook the lobster properly. The best way to cook lobster is by boiling it. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and add the lobster. Cook the lobster for 10-12 minutes per pound, or until the shell is bright red and the meat is opaque.
  • Prepare the crostini. While the lobster is cooking, prepare the crostini. Slice the baguette into thin slices and brush them with olive oil. Toast the crostini in the oven until they are golden brown and crispy.
  • Assemble the crostini. Once the lobster and crostini are cooked, assemble the crostini. Top each crostini with a piece of lobster meat, a dollop of lobster mayonnaise, and a sprinkle of chives.
  • Serve immediately. Lobster crostini are best served immediately, while the lobster is still warm and juicy.

Conclusion:

Lobster crostini are a delicious and elegant appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be prepared ahead of time, making them a great option for parties or potlucks. With their combination of fresh lobster, creamy mayonnaise, and crispy crostini, lobster crostini are sure to impress your guests.
