Tips & Tricks

• Lobster

  • Before preparing, place bagged live lobster in the freezer for approximately 30 minutes before deveining. This allows them to become slightly numb, which will prevent their meat from becoming tense during the beheading/deveining process (if you choose to take off the head, some people prefer to leave the head on when cooking)

  • To easily devein, remove one of the antennae from the head and gently push it up the opening in the tail where the black vein is. Once all the way in, pull the antennae back out and it should have caught the vein on its way out, making the deveining process less messy and hands on.

• Uni

  • After shucking live uni, be sure to use a utensil or long wooden pick to help clean out the partially digested food (black gooey stuff). Once the gonads are clean, use a spoon to gently peel it off the shell and enjoy!
