Lobster Club Sandwiches With Tarragon Mayonnaise Recipes

Steps:

• To make the mayonnaise, place the egg, mustard, lemon juice and Worcestershire sauce in a blender and process to combine. With the machine running, add the oil in a slow steady stream, blending until mixture is emulsified. Add the tarragon and salt and blend until combined. (Mayonnaise can be made a few hours ahead, covered and refrigerated.)
• Spread mayonnaise over the bottom of each roll. Top with a piece of lettuce, then the lobster meat and bacon. Cover with the roll tops and serve.

Steps:

• Toast the walnut bread under a salamander until golden brown. Spread 1/2 ounce of mayonnaise on two slices of the bread.
• In a small sauté pan, heat up the butter. Add the lobster to the pan and remove from the heat to gently poach warm.
• Toss the arugula in a small bowl with the house dressing to slightly coat. Season the tomatoes with salt and pepper.
• Arrange the arugula evenly on the bread slices with the mayonnaise. On one of those slices, place the tomatoes and the bacon. Place the second slice of bread with arugula on top of the bacon, and arrange the warm lobster evenly on top. Top with the third slice of bread.
• Finish with two caperberries skewered onto each side of the sandwich. Carefully slice the sandwich in half with a serrated knife.
• In a mixing bowl, whisk together the balsamic vinegar, sugar, salt and pepper. Add the sherry vinegar, and whisk; then whisk in the olive oil.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of water to a boil and season generously with salt. Add lobsters head first to water and cook, covered, until shells are bright red and an antennae or leg pulls off easily, 8 to 10 minutes. Crack one open where the tail meets the body of the lobster. The flesh should be firm, white, and opaque. If it is still translucent, then the lobster needs more time to finish cooking. Drain lobsters head down in a colander to release excess liquid.
• When cool enough to handle, crack lobster shells and remove meat from tails, claws, and knuckles. Tear the meat by hand into 1-inch pieces and place in a large bowl.
• In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise, lemon, celery, tarragon, cayenne, pepper, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Pour over lobster meat and gently stir until lobster is well coated. Taste and adjust seasoning, adding more mayonnaise if desired. Chill lobster mixture for 15 to 30 minutes.
• Spread cut sides of buns with butter. Heat a large skillet over medium heat and toast buns, buttered side down, until golden brown, about 2 minutes per bun. Fill each bun with lobster mixture and sprinkle with an extra dash cayenne, if desired. Serve immediately.
