Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 (1 1/2-lb) live lobsters or 1 1/2 lb cooked fresh lobster meat
1 lb small red potatoes
3 ears corn
For vinaigrette
2 1/2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 1/2 to 2 tablespoons chopped fresh tarragon
1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
2 cups grape or cherry tomatoes, halved
1 cup coarsely chopped frisée (French curly endive)
1/3 cup sliced scallion

Steps:

  • Prepare lobster, potatoes, and corn:
  • Plunge 2 live lobsters headfirst into an 8-quart pot of boiling salted water. Cover and cook lobsters over moderately high heat 9 minutes from time they enter water, then transfer with tongs to sink to cool. Return water to a boil and cook remaining 2 lobsters in same manner. Leave water boiling in pot.
  • Simmer potatoes in lobster cooking water until just tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Transfer with a slotted spoon to a colander, reserving boiling water in pot.
  • Boil corn in same water until crisp-tender, about 3 minutes, then drain.
  • When lobsters are cool, remove meat from claws, joints, and tails, reserving shells for another use.
  • Cut meat into 1-inch pieces. Cut potatoes into 3/4-inch pieces, and cut corn from cobs.
  • Make vinaigrette:
  • Whisk together lemon juice, tarragon, mustard, and salt until combined, then add oil in a thin stream, whisking.
  • Assemble salad:
  • Just before serving, toss together lobster meat, potatoes, corn, vinaigrette, tomatoes, frisée, and scallion in a large bowl and season with salt and pepper.

This salad was just okay. The lobster was a bit tough and the dressing was too vinegary for my taste. I wouldn't make it again.
