LOBSTER CASSEROLE
Steps:
- Bring court bouillion, carrot and leek to a boil then let simmer. Cook lobster in simmering bouillion for 3 minutes then cool in a bowl of ice water. Remove from the water when cool. Dry off lobster and proceed to remove all the meat from the shell (reserve the body meat and shell for the stock). In a saucepan, combine 2 ounces of whole butter, the chopped vegetables, the chopped lobster shells, 1 bay leaf, and 1 sprig of thyme. Cook until vegetables are soft, cover with water, then simmer until desired flavor and vegetables are tender. Strain stock and reserve 4 ounces. In a clean sauce pan add reserved stock and Merlot, red wine vinegar and reduce until almost all liquid is gone. Cut remaining butter into cubes and slowly whip butter into reduced sauce over a low flame. When sauce is finished, season with salt, cayenne pepper, and drops of lemon juice. Continue to simmer sauce on low flame. Add blanched lobster meat and let sit for 4 to 6 minutes in sauce. Then place warm lobster pieces in bowl and drizzle sauce around lobster. Garnish with the softened vegetables and a dollop of caviar on top. Chopped chive and chive oil are an optional garnish.

THE BEST LOBSTER CASSEROLE
I've had people say this is the best lobster dish they ever ate. I played around with this recipe because this is similar to the way my Mom used to make it, but she didn't go by recipes. Living near New Bedford and having the luxury of all the fresh seafood markets available, I usually buy my lobsters live and cook them at home and pick them myself. The biggest one I ever cooked was 10 1/2 pounds. This recipe calls for the tomalley, the green stuff in the head, not absolutely neccesary but it adds a nice flavor to the topping. If you have access to a fish market that has fresh lobsters and ask the fish monger to save you some of the tomalley it will make a difference. I didn't include a measurement for the tomalley because it depends on what you get from the lobster. If you have the fish market cook the lobster, tell them not to over cook it because the meat will cook again. My last 8 1/2 pounder I only boiled for 30 minutes, no more. You will need a batch of Hailey's Favorite Cheese Sauce, recipe #364959 for this. I usually do individual casserole dishes for everyone but you could easily do this in a bigger dish, your choice. The cook or prep time does not include cooking the lobster or picking the lobster or the cheese sauce time. I've also used this recipe with scallops.
