How do you remove the tomalley on a lobster?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Tomalley is the liver and pancreas of the lobster. It looks like a green paste inside the abdominal cavity of a cooked lobster. It is considered a delicacy and many people consider it the best part of a lobster. It can be eaten scooped from the cooked lobster or can be used to flavor sauces.

You can spoon it from the abdominal cavity after splitting the lobster down the center of the abdomen.

How to open and eat a whole lobster from the shell is explained in the information at the link listed in the related links section.

Lobsters have gills located inside two branchial chambers. Water is pumped through these chambers by an apendage called the scaphognathite. Oxygen is extracted and the water expelled. To respire means to breathe. So if you type in respire, it comes up as breathing.

Lobsters will tuck their tails under their abdomens and quickly propel themselves backward to escape predators. Some lobsters have a spine on their tail for protecting them from predators.

What part of the lobster are you eating when you eat lobster tail?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

I just ate a steamed lobster on Saturday night. You can eat the meat in the claws, the wrists, arms, and all the tiny legs. The large part of the tail is the meatiest, and my favorite part, dipped in melted butter, of course. There is even tiny bits of meat in the tail fins that are fun to extract, since they look just like the shell shape of the shells they come out of, only much thinner. The rest I ignore, although my grandmother ate what she called, "tamale" which in a female lobster are the eggs.

How do lobsters hear?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Research is ongoing with respect to how, and how well, marine crustaceans cam hear. Since they live in a liquid medium the importance of sound and the strategy for detecting it are different from vertebrates. If you consider sound to be a type of motion in air waves (a compression and rarefaction) and wind to be a continuous motion of air, the lobster would seem to at least have one sense dedicated to both effects. Lobsters, crabs and shrimp have an array of sensory hairs on their bodies which detect movement in water including the vibration in water we would perceive as sound. They also have internal sac-like sensory organs called statocysts, associated with detection of orientation, which are believed to be stimulated by sound. Marine invertebrates also have sensors in their flexible appendages like legs and antennae that can detect seismic vibrations.

Lobsters have been shown to at least be sensitive to low-frequency underwater sounds in the range of 20 to 300 Hz. By comparison, good human hearing might go from around 20 up to about 20,000 Hz.

Can you keep a lobster for a pet?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Well you could, but you are looking at setting up a BIG coldwater marine tank, filters and probably a chiller to keep the water cool.

More practical.

Get a freshwater crayfish. They are smaller, and can live in normal freshwater, cold or tropical depending on the species.

They need a normal filtered fish tank, but a 10gal tank with a freshwater cray is perfectly practical, compared to a 200gal marine tank anyway.
