How to cook a Lobster. Chef Kills and Prepares Live Lobster...then Eats him the right way. Remove rubber bands. Rubber does not taste to good in boiling water. One of the Holiday traditions that my family enjoys every season is fresh boiled lobster. This is not a hard thing to cook, but they must be fresh and live. Don't get squeamish, lobster can only be properly cooked when they are live. Lobster today is highly desirable and an affordable delicacy. At about 7 dollars a pound, 1 pound of lobster meat is more than enough for one person. That would be a 1 ½ pound live lobster. In the 1940's to the 1970's having a lobster sandwich in your school lunch was considered a throwaway meal, the PB&J of today. However, when the appeal of this delicacy caught on in the 80's, and was associated with having a disposable income, lobster became a status symbol. Today we eat lobsters for their nutritional value, a source of Omega 3, and the great taste. Here in the Maritimes, lobster is associated with special occasions, and sharing with friends and family. I get mine from a local lobster fisherman every Christmas Eve. Right out of the water in the morning and on to the plate for supper. Lobsters grow big in the cold waters of the Atlantic, and the colder the water, the harder the shell.
