Boil the lobster in salted water. Remove and save the stock. Cool the lobster and cut into 1' cubes except for the ends of the claws. Set aside. Put the shells back into the pot and boil to enrich the broth. In a large saucepan or med soup pot melt the butter. Add the flour and whisk to make a rioux. Add 2 1/2 c. of broth from the lobster. Add the 1/2 t. salt, Worcestershire sauce,2 T. sherry, tomato paste and the half and half. Let the soup reduce at just above simmer for 30 min. Add the cayenne pepper. Dissolve the cornstarch in the second 2 T. of sherry. Bring the soup to a boil, whisking so it will not burn. Add the cornstarch mixture to thicken.
