Lobster sashimi
Do you guys eat and make lobster sashimi from your catch? I couldn't find much discussion on this topic but I am interested in trying it. I found this which states that spiny lobsters generally have "few reported pathogens, parasites and symbionts".
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21215357 Does anyone else have info on this? From what I read the meat is sweet and nutty, I'm guessing similar to a scallop perhaps. |

Re: Lobster sashimi
Ive seen some bugs with quite a few bugs living off them. I personally would cook throughly any bug that I was going to eat.
I have eaten "fruta de langosta" while sitting under a palm tree on the beach when I was backpacking in Cuba. The raw tail was cut into cubes and then put in a mixture of lime juice and seawater, with minced onions being the only other ingredient. After a couple of hours it was delicious. I wasnt too worried about parasites at the time, the fact that we were illegally taking a cash crop in a communist country, and that the dive master stored the tails in his speedo seemed like more relevant details...

Re: Lobster sashimi
Yeah I came across your post on that. Sounds like a great time Jeremy, except the whole part about the guy staching the lobster in the banana hammock. I'm thinking maybe slicing the lobster meat thin and giving it the look over, or maybe blanching it quickly.

Re: Lobster sashimi
Koreans sometimes serve it that way.
If it tastes like a scallop I'll be surprised. More likely to taste like amebi, the raw shrimp sushi. |

Re: Lobster sashimi
There's a sushi restaurant in San Diego (Ota) that serves lobster sashimi. Not sure where they get it, or if perhaps they freeze first to kill pathogens. But I've had it and it's quite good.

Re: Lobster sashimi
I love lobster sashimi. The thing about it is the preparation and skill to make it high quality takes a lot of time. The best sushi chefs will dismantle a lobster meat from the tail so fast and with such sharp knifes it comes out in great texture and taste. When I tried it the first time the lobster I used was not very fresh and it took me a while to get the tail off. This greatly effected the texture and taste if the meat. Use YouTube to research this subject more and I think you will see what I mean

Re: Lobster sashimi
Lobster sashimi sounds interesting. Ive had lobster ceviche a few times and would have to say it is my favorite.

Re: Lobster sashimi
I found this with Andrew Zimmern (great show by the way). I remember trying to remove the tail meat for a pasta dish and it was very difficult to do in the raw state. I'll have to try the technique in teh video.
Bizarre Foods with Andrew Zimmern - Live Lobster Sashimi - YouTube MSHSU, that looks like a great piece right there. I will definately be tryin it. |

Aside from what can be sourced locally, I would assume most fish is frozen anyway, regardless of the laws. I remember seeing something on TV about tuna being caught in the US, transported to Japan, and then bought by US buyers and sent back here.
