Meat to Shell Ratio & Culinary UtilisationMeat to Shell Ratio & Culinary Utlisation
- Salt ice slurry extraction techniques have consistently achieved meat to shell ratios between 45% and 52% with a consistent 30% of the total weight being Grade 1 sashimi.
- Efficient use of the entire lobster can deliver innovative dishes with food costs as low as 20%.
- New dishes loosely based on molecular cuisine techniques using the head, shell and tomalley have taken lobster consommé to new heights. These innovative dishes are fully explored on our website.
- Cooking green product rather than re-warming blanched or cooked product opens new culinary opportunities. Bag cooking improves shelf-life, preserves freshness, texture and flavour. Green leg, knuckle and horn meat, bagged into portions, once cooked, served hot or cold, delivers portion control.
