Fresh Canadian Lobster

Fresh Canadian lobster is a premium shellfish species from the cold, clear waters of the Northwest Atlantic Ocean. This lobster is highly valued for its firm, succulent meat and rich, slightly sweet flavour. Canadian lobster has a distinctive yet refined character and is highly versatile in the kitchen. With a wide range of available size grades, there is a suitable size for both individual portions and larger gastronomic preparations.

Flavour & texture

Rich, refined and slightly sweet in flavour, with firm, tender and succulent lobster meat. The texture is pleasantly meaty and holds together particularly well during different cooking methods.

Culinary applications

Excellent for boiling, steaming, grilling or oven cooking. The lobster can be served whole or incorporated into refined starters and main courses.

The lobster meat is also particularly suitable for salads, pasta, risotto and premium seafood dishes. The shell and head can be used to prepare a rich lobster stock, bisque or shellfish sauce.
