I have enjoyed lobster for a while. I love it cooked, steamed, boiled, and grilled it. I think low FODMAP isn’t about not enjoying food it’s about making the best of what you got. Well, lobster is amazing and well, it’s low FODMAP. I have tried to learn how specifically to cook it and I feel I finally have a handle on it. I have tried and failed multiple time but my friend I’ve finally arrive at how to make it to help you be more awesome.

First off.. let’s do frozen tails.

Wait a second. Frozen? Aren’t we supposed to love fresh….isn’t it better? Why do you say such sacrilege? I do love fresh, I just don’t cook fresh lobster tails. “The Keg” is my golden standard and is a canadian steak/lobster restaurant. They cook lobster tails that I’m forever trying to impersonate. They have an amazing allergy protocol so please tell them what you need on the plate to stay safe and enjoy. So for this article , No I don’t like fresh. (They won’t behave the same as I’m instructing so don’t use them.) Instead, I suggest got fresh? Eat fresh! Boil and eat my friends, boil and eat! The rest of this article is for us poor suckers that must eat previously frozen.

Wow, didn’t know that I’d find this, didn’t know anyone did this. I haven’t watched the entire channel, but I have watched some of it and I’m actually impressed.

It was early on when I was testing out Spatchcocking a chicken that I broke scissors. Yes, the plastic scissors I was using broke. (It hurt.) You might notice this in the recipe that the photos mysteriously don’t show me cutting both sides of the spine. This is because the scissors broke mid recipe photo shoot. I’m really glad they did break. Now I have some amazing kitchen shears that work really well and clean really well. (They come apart for easy cleaning.) If you enjoy cooking this is one of those tools I have to recommend. They are purpose built, they’re made tough, and they’re easy to clean. Please consider picking up a pair if you like spatchcocking a chicken (Flattened Chicken).

I normally don’t like to lecture about safety, but the fact they easily come apart so you can clean all surfaces, is really a selling feature. The low FODMAP community has a hard enough time without getting sick due to bacteria. Protect your gut, by some shears that disassemble.

Here’s the one’s I use, but by all means buy any ones you want. (I don’t have affiliate links, i’m just trying to be helpful.)
