1. Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Season with salt, lemon and fresh herbs.
2. Once the water comes to a rolling boil, clip the rubber bands off the
lobster claws, pick up the lobster (with a dish cloth or kitchen gloves) and
drop head first into the pot. Don’t hesitate — just do it.
3. Cover the pot and allow to cook until the lobster shell is bright red and
the tail has curled up underneath. It takes roughly 12-15 minutes to cook
a one-pound lobster.
