Today I tried to cook up some lobster tails for the first time. I had a big pot for steaming so I decided to pick up 2 fresh tails at the store. I also picked up a small Sword Fish steak just in case the tails weren’t filling enough. I called my dad for cooking advise an after getting the steaming 101 class on the phone I was off preparing my meal. I think I started off with the flame too low since steaming up the first tail took longer than my dad said it should and it wasn’t fully cooked. I had to put it back in. I cooked one as a test and then tried the second one. In the end one of the tails was a bit over cooked and the other one was perfect. Since neither of them had the shell seamed it was an effort getting the meat out. The verdict was the lobster tails were very tasty but not worth the almost $10 a tail. I was still hungry and they weren’t filling at all. I ended up cooking the Sword Fish on the George Formal Grill. It was really good even though I had the same thing last night. I hadn’t had it in a while so it was still good!
The day was uneventful otherwise.
