Steps:
- First you will need a sauce pan that has a steamer basket. If your lobster tails are frozen thaw them out. Cut the top of the lobster tail enough to allow expansion of the meat. In the sauce pan - on a medium low heat mix together the garlic, butter and white wine stirring occasionally. Once the butter wine mix comes to a boil, place the steam basket and cover. Let the Lobster tails steam for 8 minutes. They will turn bright red. Set aside. Using a strainer, pour the butter wine mixture into serving cups. Use the butter wine mixture to dip the lobster tails inches I hope you enjoy it!

STEAMED LOBSTER
Steps:
- Set up a collapsible steamer in a very large pot. Pour in a good inch of water and bring to a boil. Lower the lobster into the pot, on top of the steamer; slap on the lid and hold it there for the first minute or so of cooking, to keep the lobster firmly in place. Meanwhile, melt the butter slowly in a small pot, and squeeze in as much lemon juice as you like. Keep warm.
- After 10 minutes of cooking, remove the lobster with tongs, and let the water drip back into the pot. Place on a big plate, with the melted butter in a small cup alongside. If you don't have lobster-eating equipment, look in your toolbox for something to crack the tough shells, or use a nutcracker. I use poultry shears to cut through the middle from head to tail, so I can break the body open and get at the meat. Dip each bite into the melted butter, and relish the delectable sweet, sea-scented flavor. And be sure to spoon out the tomalley, now greenish in color and creamy in texture, and glorious to eat.
- Second Round
- Return the shells to the broth, and cook together for about 15 minutes, adding a little more water. You'll now have a fine broth to use in any fish soup, or for the base of a New England Bouillabaisse (page 91).

Tips:
- To ensure your lobster is cooked perfectly, use a meat thermometer to check that the internal temperature has reached 145°F (63°C) in the thickest part of the tail.
- If you don't have a steamer basket, you can use a large pot with a colander or metal strainer placed inside. Make sure the colander or strainer is elevated above the water so the lobster doesn't sit in the boiling water.
- Adding white wine to the steaming liquid adds a delicious flavor to the lobster. You can also use other liquids like clam juice, fish stock, or even beer.
- Be careful not to overcook the lobster, as this will make it tough and rubbery. A good rule of thumb is to cook the lobster for 8-10 minutes per pound.
- Serve the lobster immediately with melted butter, lemon wedges, and your favorite dipping sauce.
