Caribbean lobster, flash-frozen at sea. Sweet, dense meat that holds together under heat. Butter, lemon, sea salt: no sauce required.

Rock lobster, also called spiny lobster, is a warm-water species without large front claws. Its tail carries the meat: sweeter and richer than cold-water lobster, with a firm, snappy texture. Each tail comes raw and flash-frozen at around 220g, with a shell that lifts off easily after cooking. Defrost overnight, then sous-vide and finish in garlic-herb butter, butterfly and grill, or fry briefly to keep the meat tender. One tail makes a generous main, two make a celebratory plate for sharing.
