The Spicy Lobster Boil Tea Towel

Lobster Gram just began carrying a limited number of new Lobster Kitchen Accessories to our web site for Mother's Day and we had one item in particular I just fell in love with. It's a simple tea towel for the kitchen (see: Kitchen towel, Dish rag etc.)that has one major difference.
A Recipe...for a Spicy Lobster Boil printed right there on the towel. No...really! It's an incredibly useful kitchen item that doubles as a recipe card. Who knew kitchen towels could mutli-task?
And it's cute to boot...
See what I mean? I know I'm picking up a few to add to my lobster kitchen collection.
And for those of you who are unsure what a spicy Lobster Boil is, here is the recipe.
Bon Appetite foodies. Don't forget Mom this Sunday!

Classic Maine Lobster Rolls from Lobster Gram

Good afternoon friends and foodies! It's Friday and it's a gorgeous day here in Chicago! Every year when spring rolls around (first official day of spring is Sunday!) Lobster Grammers start craving that classic New England favorite...the Lobster Roll.
There are literally dozens of ways people prepare Lobster Rolls. Some use nothing but lobster meat and clarified butter, others use mayonnaise.
At Lobster Gram, we have used a single Lobster Roll recipe since 1987. Other variations were still good...but they were not the lobster rolls we spend all winter dreaming about.
So, in the spirit of sharing this spring, here is the Classic Lobster Gram Maine Lobster Roll Recipe. Bon Appetite!

Classic Maine Lobster Rolls
-1 lb. (1-1/2 cups) cooked lobster meat, thawed
-1/4 cup green onion, chopped
-1/2 cup celery, chopped
-1 Tbsp. Dijon mustard
-1 Tsp. lemon juice
-1 Tsp. Worcestershire sauce
-1/3 cup mayonnaise
-1/3 cup sour cream
-salt & pepper to taste

To make Lobster Rolls
Combine ingredients well, let stand 20 minutes for flavors to mix completely.
With 4 long French or hoagie-style sandwich rolls, slice the bread lengthwise, hollow out the inside of the bread, and toast or grill until slightly crunchy on the outside. Spoon in the lobster filling and it's ready. Serve with crunchy potato chips, side salad and lemonade or a hearty beer.
