Some people like frozen lobster better than the live ones. Some say that once you buy live lobsters, you have to cook them as soon as you can. think. If something comes up, and you can’t cook the lobster on that particular night, there will still be other nights to enjoy your frozen lobster.

The most common and usual type of frozen lobster is the frozen lobster tails. Always buy frozen lobster tails from reputable stores. Some would try to increase the weight and preserve the tail for long periods of time by injecting it with water. A result of this is an increased weight in tail but the meat is just the same hence you pay more than it’s actually worth. Another thing is that you have to watch out for the tail if it has discoloration. Discoloration is present when certain parts of the lobster are turning grey and black and yellow spots can be seen on the meat. If you think that there is something wrong with your lobster, stay away from it and don’t even think about buying it.. In these cases, its better to be safe.

Considering the fact that high-quality lobsters are quite abundant nowadays, you’ll get to enjoy it more. Below are the steps to follow when cooking frozen lobster. Begin by letting the lobster thaw in the refrigerator for 24 hours before cooking. If the tails are left unthawed, it’ll take a longer for them to be cooked.

If you want to thaw the lobster faster, then you have to put it in a plastic bag and immerse it in water. One of the ways to cook lobster is by teaming it in 4-5 cups of water. Boil it until it steams. Before you put the lid, you have to first put the lobster in a rack. You have to continue steaming until their meat turns white and the shell turns red. Steam for 14 minutes for the first pound, and additional 3 minutes for each additional pound.

Once the frozen lobster is cooked, remove it from the rack, run some cold water on the lobster. This stops the cooking process, and would make sure that your lobster won’t be overcooked.

Lobsters can be enjoyed in a lot of ways and this is just one of them. Lobster is quite abundant since they can be bought anywhere.
