How To Of The Day: How To Get All The Meat Out Of A Lobster
Enjoy… No really… Enjoy!
Picking a lobster, getting it home, and cooking it is the easy part: getting all of the meat out of it for dinner or for a recipe can be the tricky bit. With a little practice, it doesn’t have to be. Thankfully, this video guide from America’s Test Kitchen will show you how it’s done.
Joke Of The Day
In a small fishing village, a Newfoundlander was walking Up the wharf carrying two at-least-three-pound live lobsters, one in each hand.
It was three weeks after the season closed! Whom should he meet at the end of the wharf but the Federal Fisheries Officer who, upon viewing the live and wiggling lobsters, says: “Well me Laddie I got you this time – with two live lobsters three weeks after the season Closed!”
The Newfie says, “No – My Son you are wrong! These are two trained lobsters that I caught two weeks before the season ended.”
The Fisheries Officer says, ” Trained like how?”
“Well my son, each day I takes these two from my house down to the wharf and puts them in the water for a swim. While they swim I sits on the wharf and has me a smoke, or two. After about 15 minutes I whistles and up comes me two lobsters, and I takes them home!”
“Likely story”, the Fisheries Officer says! “Lets take them on down the wharf and see if it`s true.”
So, the Newfie goes ahead of the Fisheries Officer to the end of the wharf where, under supervision, he gently lowers both lobsters into the water.
The Newfie sits on a wharf piling and lights up a smoke, then another! After about 15 minutes the Fisheries Officer says to the Newfie, “How about whistling?”
The Newfie says ” What For?”
The Fisheries Officer says, ” To call in the Lobsters”
The Newfie says, ” What Lobsters?”
Joke Of The Day
A seafood restaurant had a sign in the window that read, “Big Lobster Tales, $5 each.”
Amazed at the great value, a man stopped in and asked the waitress, “Five dollars each for lobster tails. Is that correct”?
“Yes,” she said. “It’s our special just for today.”
“Well,” he said, “They must be little lobster tails.”
“No,” she replied, “It’s the really big lobster.”
“Big red lobster tails, $5 each”? he said, amazed. “They must be old lobster tails!”
“No, they’re definitely today’s.”
“Today’s big red lobster tails, $5 each”? he repeated, astounded.
“Yes,” she insisted.
“Well, here’s my five dollars,” he said. “I’ll take one.”
She took the money and led him to a table where she invited him to sit down. She then sat down next to him, put her hand on his shoulder, leaned over close to him and said,
“Once upon a time, there was a really big, red lobster…”
