French Live Blue Lobster
PRE ORDER Order Friday week 1 before 2pm delivery Friday week 2
While live freshwater lobster gives off a blue hue, after boiling properly, the lobster will take on a bright red coloring. This is the king of crustaceans! Besides its voracious appetite, five pairs of walking legs and two claws, the lord of the Atlantic coasts has an immaculate, firm, slightly iridescent flesh with delicate briny flavors.
It has naturally inspired a legion of delicious seafood recipes, including thermidor, Armoricaine, bisque, and more. The choice is yours!
Although the blue lobster is mainly harvested from March to mid-October, this delicacy is particularly prized during the festive season Usually caught in a bated trap, close to the rugged bed of the Atlantic coast, the lobster must meet a minimum regulatory size or it is returned to the water in order to conserve stocks. Fortunately, lobsters live fairly long lives, from 6 to 10 years, before reaching a size of 30 to 50 cm and a weight that varies from 1 lb. to… several pounds for the real heavyweights!
Blue lobster is rich in protein, mineral salts and vitamins.
