To keep the cost down, maybe try Langostinos instead of Lobster. You can find them at Trader Joe's in the freezer, or sometimes Costco carries them.

This recipe is so easy, and delicious, but follow the recipe exactly! Also, this recipe if read exactly is a bit confusing. You will need to boil the lobster prior to starting. I didn't and had to cook them later. What a mistake! Enjoy!

Use nonfat milk (and forzen corn for ease-- just as delicious, far less fat! Easy, quick, and delicious-- who could ask for more? I used Price Club lobster, too, from the shellfish cart.

First of all, Ina's recipes are incredibly delicious, and this one is no exception! To Julia, if you want to go around spewing ignorant vitriol, the least you could do is use proper grammar. Perhaps you should repeat the second grade where they teach the useage of you're vs. your. I love your gay friends, Ina!

Beverly, it says on the recipe that the lobsters are supposed to be cooked already, so it is actually step-by-step :

Since I am new to these recipes, does anyone know what you are supposed to do with the lobster? She says to cut the meat up, but
aren't you supposed to cook the lobsters first? How long? A step is missing from this I think and I need a 'step by step' recipe.

I watched and would love to make but my first thought was that cooking it that long would curdle.

Here in Maine lobster prices are around 4.99/lb right now so this recipe was less of a strain on the budget...and perfect on a cold night! Used whole milk only, no cream...and canned corn since corn on the cob isn't in season. Other than that, followed the recipe exactly and...wow. Highly recommended, Ina never lets me down!

I decided to replicate the Young Frankenstein episode, and made Ina's soup and glazed ham for our family Christmas Eve dinner party. My husband said this was the best thing he has ever tasted. I splurged on 1 1/2 lbs of lobster tail at Costco, and added some beautiful extra large shrimp.

Making the stock was really fun- I did strain mine through a chinois twice, to make sure it was silky smooth. I also forgot to add the bit of cream sherry at the end, but didn't experience any loss in flavor. My Mother declared this dish a new family tradition. Thanks Ina!
