Title: Sweet Creamed Lobster Stew
Categories: Lobster
Yield: 1 Servings

2		Qrtr live lobsters; or up to 3
3	tb	Butter
4	c	Milk
1/2	pt	Whipping cream

Steam the lobsters. Remove the meat from the shell. Cover and cool.

Melt the butter in an enamelled cast-iron saucepan or a flameware saucepan. Add the lobster meat and simmer over low heat for a few minutes, add the milk and stir most of the time until hot, add the cream and keep on stirring. When hot, simmer for a few minutes, but do not boil. Cool. Cover and refrigerate 12 to 24 hours before serving, to develop the full flavor of the lobster. Reheat, without boiling, and, just before serving, season to taste with salt and pepper.

NOTES : This makes a delicious meal to serve in the garden, with a basketful of hot buttered crackers, and followed by strawberries, thick cream and maple sugar. Posted to MM-Recipes Digest V4 #10
