Fresh Live Native Lobster
How should I handle and cook live native lobster?
Handling: Keep the lobster in its breathable packaging in the fridge until ready to cook. Do not submerge in fresh water.
Humane Preparation: Place the live lobster in the freezer for 20–30 minutes prior to cooking to render it completely dormant.
Cooking Times:
Boiling/Steaming: Boil in heavily salted water for approx. 12 minutes for a 500g lobster, adding 2–3 minutes for every additional 250g.
Grilling: Par-boil for 5 minutes, split in half lengthwise, baste generously with garlic herb butter, and finish on a hot grill for 4–5 minutes.
How does live delivery work and how long do they keep?
Live Delivery Assurance: Packed in specialized damp seaweed/cool-pack insulation to keep them calm, moist, and alive during transit (0°C to 4°C).
Storage: Cook on the day of delivery for maximum sweetness and quality. If necessary, keep covered with a damp cloth in the coldest part of your fridge and cook within 24 hours.
