Poor Man's Lobster is not so much a particular fish as a recipe for preparing fish. Haddock, cod, white fish, and even monkfish are mong those mentioned in recipes available on line. The basic process is to add salt and seasoning to a large pot of water, bring it to a boil, then add the fish, which has been cut into pieces. As soon as the fish floats remove it and serve with melted butter.
When cooking lobster, it's common to use about 1 to 2 tablespoons of salt per quart of water. This helps enhance the flavor of the lobster and mimics the salinity of seawater. Make sure to dissolve the salt fully before adding the lobster to the pot for even seasoning. Adjust the amount based on personal taste and the size of your cooking pot.
Zatarains Crab Boil liquid and pouches(dry). much better than Old Bay
For water, 212 F
It has to be 212 or better to boil so at least that much.
Water boils at 212 degrees Fahrenheit.
The cost to boil a full kettle of water depends on the energy efficiency of the kettle and the cost of electricity in your area. On average, it could cost around 2 to 10 cents to boil a full kettle of water.
Lobsters are normally sold by the pound. To calculate the volume of a lobster, immerse it in a container full of water and measure how much water it displaces. (Because some water may enter spaces in the shell, this is not a precise calculation of its size.)
Adding salt to water actually increases its boiling point, so it will take longer for saltwater to boil compared to plain water. It is not recommended to add salt solely to make the water boil faster.
That is entirely dependent on: 1. Your relation to sea level. 2. How much water you have. 3. How much salt is in the salt water. 4. What amount of heat you are using.
You don't need to measure the water, it's much more accurate to boil half a small pan of water, when it's boiling fling in your spaghetti and remove it in exactly 7 minutes. It will be perfect.
Turn them upside-down, split them down the middle from head to end of tail, take out the tomalley (the green stuff). Combine tomalley with soda crackers and garlic butter. Stuff the lobster with the mixture. Wrap the claws (individually) with tinfoil, the tail with tinfoil, then the body with tinfoil Bake at 400 for about 15-20 minutes (stuffing will brown, body will turn red). Enjoy!
