Sweet Creamed Lobster Stew
Ingredients
- 2 or 3 live lobsters
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 4 cups milk
- 1/2 pint whipping cream
Instructions
- Steam the lobsters. Remove the meat from the shell. Cover and cool.
- Melt the butter in an enameled cast iron saucepan or a flame-ware saucepan. Add the lobster meat and simmer over low heat for a few minutes.
- Add the milk and stir most of the time until hot.
- Add the cream and keep stirring. When hot, simmer for a few minutes, but do not boil. Cool.
- Cover and refrigerate 12 to 24 hours before serving to develop the full flavor of the lobster.
- Reheat, without boiling, and, just before serving, season to taste with salt and pepper.
