Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use fresh lobster meat. If you're using frozen lobster meat, be sure to thaw it completely before using.
  • Be careful not to overcook the lobster meat. Overcooked lobster will be tough and chewy.
  • Use a light hand when mixing the lobster salad. Over-mixing will make the salad tough.
  • If you don't have any endive spears, you can use other sturdy greens, such as romaine lettuce or Boston lettuce.
  • Serve the lobster salad immediately, or chill it for up to 2 hours before serving.

Conclusion:

Lobster salad on endive spears is a delicious and elegant appetizer or light lunch. It's perfect for special occasions, but it's also easy enough to make for a weeknight meal.
