Flash Fried Lobster Tails
« Reply #-1 on: May 10, 2013, 07:46:26 PM »
Two 6 oz cold water tails



Cut down the middle and pull meat off the bottom side. Make a circular cut around the tail and we are ready to go



Gonna try something different. I read that you can cut shrimp on a bias on the underside to keep it from curling. Going to try that with lobster.



Let’s see what happens

The wash. Two egg yolks whipped with ¾ cup cold water.



The dredge. ½ cup corn starch ½ cup cake flour. What we are looking for here is a super tender crust. Combine and into the wash. Then a thin coating of dredge.



Fry at 350 for about 3 minutes. They will not be very brown because of the corn starch. Just a hint of golden. The one on the left was the tail cut on the bias. Did’nt work. Skewered the other.

Mixed up some honey mustard sauce and melted some clarified butter. Let’s eat!



With the butter



With the honey mustered



The End



Enjoy!

If you run a skewer up the tail it will prevent curling

Everything is better fried.  How much better would it be fried in bacon grease?  Dee
