BOILING: Perhaps the easiest way to cook a lobster.
In order to boil your lobster, you will need a large pot with a lid.
Pour enough water into the pot to cover the lobster completely.
Add 2 tablespoons of sea salt for every 2 liters (4 pints) of water.
Bring the water to a rolling boil.
Grasp the live lobster from the backdrop it headfirst into the boiling water.
Cover the pot and once the water has started to boil again, start timing.
Boil the lobster for 10 minutes for the first 1-lb of weight and then 3 more minutes for each extra pound. A 2-lb lobster will be done in 13 minutes, a 3-lb lobster in 16 minutes.
Once cooked, drain the lobster immediately and serve hot with some melted butter on the side for dipping.
