Directions: |
Directions:In a large pot bring water to a rolling boil. Add some sea salt or kosher salt and crushed pepper flakes to water. Put the lobster in and boil until the water is reduced to half and the lobster is bright red, about 25 minuets. Remove lobster, cool and shell. Return the shells from the claws and tail and little feelers to the pot, but not the body. Add the cut up potatoes and onion. Boil to reduce even further and until the potatoes and onion are soft and broth starts to thicken from the potatoes. Remove from heat and cool. Remove shells. In a blender puree the stock until fairly smooth. Return to the pot. Add the sherry and salt and pepper to taste. Cut the lobster meat into small pieces and add to the broth. Save a little lobster for garnish. Add the heavy cream and the butter to give it a sheen just before serving. Heat and serve. |

Notes: If you feel the broth is not thick enough, mix a little cornstarch with sherry and add to boiling broth prior to adding the cream and the butter. Wonderful for a crisp fall day. Serve with just a salad and some crusty bread.
