Deciding To Have Live Lobster Shipped Should Not Be Done Lightly

By Patricia Barnes


Seafood is a delicacy that is enjoyed by many on numerous occasions. While some people are particularly fond of hake or haddock one of the most delectable flavors is that of the Indian Ocean red lobster. This particular red lobster is known for being the most tasty as a result of high salt concentration and warm currents in the Indian Ocean. When eating out in a seafood restaurant be sure to ask for live lobster shipped directly from East Africa as this is truly the greatest delicacy.

The way in which the fish is caught will effect the taste of the lobster meat. The best tasting barnacle has been caught by hand and immediately placed in sea water of the same temperature. Some barnacle is caught by net from fishing trawlers, this is likely to frighten the animal more and their stressful circumstances causes their meat to become tough.

Much of the sea creatures that can be bought have been shipped frozen and in bulk. This is a terrible travesty as you will still pay the same price for frozen sea food unknowingly when eating in a restaurant. Ideally they should be transported in temperature regulated water and in tanks that are not too crowded as this too will affect the animal's stress levels.

The temperature of the water that the sea creature is transported and kept in prior to serving is also very important. The water temperature will have to be regulated to be kept as close to their usual temperature as possible. Many fishing trawlers that transport the barnacles that you can buy do not have the equipment needed to do so which will affect the quality of the meat.

The best way to ensure this is to personally choose the creature of your choice from the aquarium on display in the restaurant. Avoid buying barnacle that is too large as these are often older ones whose meat is not as tender. The more red the sea creature is, the better it is likely to taste too. A red bright one is often a sign of good blood flow which equates to very tender meat.

The meat will taste best when captured very carefully to ensure that they still remain calm. On nights where many people are ordering seafood, the lobsters are likely to become tense. It is advisable not to eat them on a busy night.

Finally the way in which the lobster is cooked is vitally important. Ideally they should be boiled in a glass pot so that they can see their surroundings and remain calm. Because they are cold blooded, they will not notice the change in temperature if the pot is slowly brought to the boil. They will still remain calm when expiring and can then be cooked to perfection.

If you are a fan of seafood keep an eye out for seafood restaurants that serve live lobster that was obtained from the Indian Ocean. If you are unfamiliar with the circumstances regarding their initial catching, shipping and the way it is cooked do a little bit of research beforehand. Good seafood restaurants will have the reputation that goes with their food.
