Preparation

Lobsters
To cook lobster, bring a large pot of salted water (2 1/2 Tbsp 38 mL per 6 cups/1,5 L) to a rolling boil.
Drop lobsters in headfirst.
Once water is back to a boil, start timing: 10 minutes per pound  (450 g).
Salad
In a bowl, combine salad ingredients, reserving a few citrus supremes.
Toss with dressing and fresh herbs to taste. Mound in the centre of the plate.
Slice lobster meat, except claw meat, and reheat slightly.
Lay sliced meat and claw meat on top of the salad and drizzle with dressing.
Garnish with citrus supremes and herbs.
In a small bowl, combine all ingredients except oil. Whisk in oil in a thin stream to emulsify.
Adjust seasoning.

Suggestion

Note: If dressing is too acidic, add a little honey.
