SPLIT CORNISH LOBSTER
SPLIT CORNISH LOBSTER
Cornish lobsters are the king of the Shellfish. During the season, they are delivered daily from a select lobster pot fleet, who catch these critters in pots dotted around the rocky Cornish coastline.
A beautifully delicate, subtle-sweet flavour unlike anything you’ve ever tasted, our lobsters are a supreme choice to treat your taste buds.
They arrive pre-cooked and ready to devour, needing nothing but a little butter, some lemon and a pinch of sea salt.
We are committed to sustainable fishing practices. Our Cornish Lobsters are recommended by the Cornwall Good Seafood Guide, and we also donate £1 to the National Lobster Hatchery for every kg of Lobster we sell as part of their ‘Buy One Set One Free' which helps replenish stocks.
Sustainable, delicious and nutritious – what’s not to love about Lobster?
IMPORTANT: All weights stated are live start weights. After we have cooked and prepared your Lobster, please expect around 80% of the start weight. This equates to a minimum of 360g, a maximum of 480g for a small Lobster, a minimum of 480g, and a maximum of 640g for a medium lobster.
Storage & Preparation
Consume within four days of delivery must be kept refrigerated.
The green/ grey or red creamy substance in the body cavity of your lobster is called tomalley.
It's perfectly safe to eat and makes a great addition to seafood sauces.
It's a more intense flavour than the sweet meat of the lobster claw or tail and is often considered a delicacy.
