- Ingredients:

- Scallions (finely-chopped)
- 1/4 cup shredded iceberg lettuce
- Several stalks of celery
- 1/2 cup white wine

- Homemade mayo:
- Soy oil

- Pasteurized egg yolks
Preparation
Step 1
My homemade mayo is your traditional mayonnaise made with soy oil, lemon juice and pasteurized egg yolks.
Boil 3 live lobsters for 12 minutes (hardshell) or 8 minutes (softshell) in four inches of saltwater with a couple stalks of celery, 1/2 cup of white wine, about 4 sprigs of thyme, and half an onion.
Chop tail meat into 1" chunks, remove knuckles and claws whole and refrigerate for 1 hour.
Mix the lobster meat with about a quarter cup of mayo – just enough to hold the meat together. You want to do this when the lobster is cold or the mayo will melt. Add 1/2 teaspoon white pepper, 1 teaspoon sea salt, 1/2 cup of finely chopped celery. This is your mixture.
Take a Country Kitchen Top Split hot dog bun and brush with butter, then heat on the grill.
Once bun is ready, add in lobster salad mixture, add in 1/4 cup finely-shredded iceberg lettuce.
Top with chopped scallions and a little paprika.
