INSTRUCTIONS
In a large stock pot of boiling salted water, plunge the live lobsters and
boil them, covered, for 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer the lobsters with tongs
to a cutting board and let cool until they can be handled. Break off the
claws at the body, crack them, and remove the meat, cutting it into 3/4
inch pieces. Halve the lobsters lengthwise along the underside, remove the
meat from the tails, and cut it into 3/4 inch pieces. In a large bowl
combine the claw meat and the tail meat. Break off the legs carefully at
the body, reserving them for another use, remove the meat from the body
cavities near the leg joints, and add it to the bowl.
Add the halved cherry tomatoes, corn, and celery to the lobster meat. Toss
in the basil and lemon zest and stir to combine.
In a small bowl, whisk the lemon juice with the hazelnut oil and season
with salt and pepper.
Drizzle over the lobster mixture and toss to coat it well. Season to taste
with salt and pepper.
Yield: 2 servings
