Lobster Roll #1: Naked with Melted Butter
Nothing complements the sweet flavor of lobster meat quite like drawn butter. It’s so simple, yet so delicious. Pile cooked lobster onto your toasted roll and drizzle it with melted, salted butter. Be sure to have some extra on the side for dipping, along with lemon for squeezing over the lobster, if you like. That’s it – rich, buttery goodness with a hint of sweetness and dash of saltiness.Photo courtesy of Red's Eats in Wiscasset, Maine.
