This one-pot meal—lobster, corn, and green beans—conjures summer in New England. The simple sesame mayonnaise is outstanding for dunking and slathering. Ingredients:
3/4 to 1 pound trimmed green beans |
4 ears shucked corn |
4 (1 1/4-to 1 1/2-pounds) live lobsters |
2/3 cup mayonnaise |
1 teaspoon soy sauce |
1 teaspoon asian sesame oil |
Directions:
1. Cook green beans and corn in an 8-to 10-quart pot of salted boiling water until crisp-tender, about 4 minutes. Transfer to a platter and return water to a boil.
2. Plunge 2 lobsters headfirst into boiling water and cook, partially covered, over medium-high heat 8 minutes (for 1 1/4-pound lobsters) to 9 minutes (for 1 1/2-pound lobsters) from time they enter water. Transfer with tongs to a colander to drain. Return water to a boil and cook remaining lobsters.
3. While lobsters cook, whisk together mayonnaise, soy sauce, and sesame oil.
4. Serve lobsters with green beans, corn, and sesame mayonnaise.
