  • Eating lobster is not for the faint of heart. One of the few meals messy enough to require its own bib, a lobster dinner can often end in spilled butter, mounting frustration, and heaps of discarded shells. Luckily, executive chef Dave Seigal of the Lobster Place in Chelsea Market is here to breakdown the crustacean cracking does and don'ts. From how to properly pry open a claw, to that little nugget of meat hiding just behind the head, chef Seigal explains how to sink your lobster pick into every last morsel.

      @Renuclous 6 ปีที่แล้ว +9

      1. very nice and fittingly calm how you responded.
      2. The research on the topic is simply one thing: inconclusive
      3. When Chefs with a dozen michelin-star rated restaurants and thousands of guests every single day, like gordon Ramsey, are able to split every lobster, so are you and everyone else. Even if there is a just a 1% chance that they do feel the pain of beeing boiled to death, why the fuck wouldn't you do it? When you have the time to write pointless impolite youtubecomments from your mothers basement, i bet you can spare the 0.05 seconds it takes to do it...

    It's always bothered me how most chefs and cooks take out lobster tail meat. First remove the tail. Second, hold it in your dominant hand with the shell of the tail in your palm. Third, crush the tail shell by making a tight fist. Fourth, using two hands pry open the shell and pull out the entire tail piece intact. Lastly, on the top of the tail meat, where it connected with the body, there is a sort of "tab" that you pull all the way to the end of the tail, exposing the "shit pipe" as someone referred to it. Remove the black stuff and you've got yourself a beautiful, full piece of tail meat...none of this cut in half garbage with shit in it.

It feels like they've earned their retirement to me. Hypocritical? In many ways yes, but 30 plus years combing the sea bed seems like they've put in an above average shift.
