What each ingredient does
- Lobster
- Provides the main protein, with sweet flavour and a tender texture when cooked gently.
The step that matters
Boiling the lobster properly. Overcooking lobster tightens its proteins and makes the meat tough and rubbery, so it should be cooked just until the flesh turns opaque and firm.
