WARM LOBSTER ROLLS
From executive chef David Raymer of Tavern on Main in Westport, Conn. I got this from Yankee Magazine. Note says: The recipe substitutes white wine and butter for the more traditional base of mayonnaise. To save preparation time, have a fish market preboil your lobsters and remove the meat from the shells.

LOBSTER ROLLS
Some people like only mayonnaise or melted butter on their lobster rolls, but we love the added flavor that fresh herbs provide.

Steps:
- Stir together lobster and mayonnaise. Stir in chives and tarragon (if desired), and lemon juice; season with salt and pepper. Refrigerate, covered, while preparing rolls, or up to 2 hours.
- Heat a large heavy skillet or griddle over medium heat until hot. Lightly brush outside of buns with butter; transfer to skillet. Cook, turning once, until golden brown, about 1 1/2 minutes per side.
- Spoon about 1/2 cup lobster mixture into each bun. Serve immediately.
Tips:
- Use fresh lobster meat. Fresh lobster meat is the key to a great lobster roll. If you can't find fresh lobster meat, you can use frozen lobster meat, but be sure to thaw it completely before using it.
- Cook the lobster meat properly. Lobster meat should be cooked until it is just opaque. Overcooked lobster meat will be tough and chewy.
- Use a good quality mayonnaise. Mayonnaise is the other key ingredient in a lobster roll. Be sure to use a good quality mayonnaise that is made with real butter and eggs.
- Add some extras. You can add some extras to your lobster roll to give it your own personal touch. Some popular additions include celery, onion, tarragon, and lemon juice.
- Serve the lobster rolls immediately. Lobster rolls are best served immediately after they are made. If you need to make them ahead of time, you can store them in the refrigerator for up to 2 hours.
Conclusion:
Lobster rolls are a delicious and easy-to-make seafood dish that is perfect for any occasion. By following these tips, you can make the best lobster rolls that you have ever tasted.
