CHRISTMAS LOBSTER PASTA
Christmas Eve. After decades of Lobster Newburg, no such sauce to be found in Manhattan. So. A new recipe. Lobster in a butter sauce over fresh pasta.
1/4 lb. cooked lobster meat from Citarella per person. More is fine.
Serves 8+.
In a large stock pot on medium high, heat 2 – 3 lbs. lobster meat in 1 lb. melted butter, juice of 2 lemons. Add cracked pepper to taste.
Serve over fresh pasta.
Garnish with diced sun-dried tomatoes, whole capers, and dried basil.
Buon Natale!
Note: Aragosta v. Astice. It looks like a New England lobster is astice. A warm water langouste appears more aragosta.
