INGREDIENTS

INSTRUCTIONS

Prepare the lobster: Cook the lobsters in boiling salted water for 3 to 4
minutes, or until slightly underdone. Remove from the water and let cool
slightly. Remove the lobster meat from the shells, reserving the meat and
the shells. Coarsely chop the lobster meat.
Prepare the corn: Remove husks from the corn and cut kernels off the cobs.
Reserve the corn, cobs, and half of the husks.
Make the bisque: Place the lobster shells, corn cobs, husks, bay leaves,
thyme sprigs, and peppercorns in a stockpot and add enough water to barely
cover. Simmer for 45 minutes, then strain through a fine mesh sieve,
discarding the solids. Place the broth in a large saucepan and simmer over
medium heat for 45 minutes, or until reduced to 1 1/2 quarts. Season to
taste with salt and pepper.
In a small saucepan, place half of the corn kernels and the heavy cream.
Cook over medium heat for 10 minutes, or until the cream is reduced to
about 1 cup. Remove from the heat and puree until smooth. Season to taste
with salt and pepper.
Cook the bacon over medium-low heat for 10 minutes, or until the fat is
rendered but not brown. Remove the bacon from the pan and discard. Saute
the remaining corn, the potatoes, and onion in the bacon fat over medium
heat for 10 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender. Drain any fat from
the pan, add the pureed corn mixture, and cook over medium heat for 5
minutes, or until thick. Add the lobster stock in small additions until the
desired consistency is reached. Add the lobster meat to the pan and whisk
in the butter just prior to serving.
Ladle the soup into 10 bowls and sprinkle with the chervil leaves. Top with
freshly ground black pepper to taste.
