3 tablespoons of fresh lemon juice

Tarragon lobster salad recipe preparation

Chop shallot until you have ¼ cup of finely chopped shallot.
Place shallot in a bowl, add the lemon juice, add salt and blend all ingredients well.
Leave the bowl at room temperature for 30 minutes.
While the bowl is standing, you can cook the lobsters. Place the live lobsters in boiling salted water. Cover the pot loosely and boil over moderate high heat for 9 minutes. Transfer the lobsters to the sink and let them cool off. If you do not have a really large pot, it is better to boil two lobsters at the time.
When the lobsters re cool, it is time to remove the meat from claws, joints and tails. Tomalley, shells and roe should not be included in this recipe.
Cut the lobster meat into ½-inch pieces.
Chop fresh tarragon until you have 2 tablespoons of finely chopped tarragon.
Add tarragon, mayonnaise and pepper to the shallots and whisk the ingredients together.
Add the lobster meat pieces and toss gently until they have become coated.
Serve.
