i have a bit of a backlog of foodie posts, so i’ll have to catch up. nantucket grill. i stumbled upon this quaint cafe in a quiet corner of one of the strip malls. not much going on outside, but the inside was quite cute and the menu looked promising. tricky part is that it is only open mondays to fridays from 10:30 to 4:00 (!). we made it for lunch on one of joe’s non-teaching days a few weeks ago.
sandwiches were big and good. i especially liked the new england clam chowder.
rebecca eating her lobster quiche. i think she approves.
recipe for steamed lobster:
“Fill a very large pot with 1 inch of sea water and bring to a boil. If you are not near an ocean you can simulate sea water by adding 1Tbsp salt to each Qt of water. Put lobsters head first into the water, cover and steam for about 15 mins. If lobsters are very large, cook an extra 4 additional mins per lb.
When cooked, lobsters should be bright scarlet and the antennae should pull from sockets easily.
Drain and serve while hot with lemon and drawn butter.
Unless your pot is truly enormous, it is best to cook no more than 2 lobsters in one pot.”
