Claire Saffitz's Perfect Lobster Roll Recipe | Dessert Person

[@gnbgffgcd3902]

Watching Claire make lobster rolls in her parents kitchen gives me the biggest throw back to Molly making them in the ultimate thanksgiving dinner BA video

[@RosaParksShoe]

Now that most of the crew are doing their own thing, I'd love for a little colab among them

[@charlesthoreson4162]

Wasn’t a fan of molly at all.

[@ahmedwijanarko8861]

ahhh the good ol' days, I just wish everyone (not Adam Rapoport) a good life

[@gnbgffgcd3902]

@@RosaParksShoe that’s literally my dream

[@BethanyGrey1]

Same, those episodes with everyone together were my fave ❤

[@Danielledagostino10011]

“Verdict: mmm” makes me smile every time.

[@stfueg0]

I know Claire is the "Dessert Person" but as someone who doesn't bake himself, I'm glad there's some fantastic non-dessert recipes for me to get into like these! Thanks!

[@whatisboom]

branding yourself as the "dessert person" is a little short sighted IMO, good for a book, but not a youtube channel.

[@meow-vk7uq]

@1:50 that’s what I love so much about Claire, she’s so real and authentic and isn’t afraid to not make things from scratch all the time haha

[@_FearNoEvil]

I am from Massachusetts and I'm so grateful to be here with access to the best seafood in the country! Best lobstah rolls evah! Thank you Jesus!

[@t.b.9607]

Do I like lobster? No. Do I like to cook? Also no. Did I love watching Claire make this? 100%. So relaxing.

[@KingJerbear]

As someone from Connecticut, I think both types of lobster rolls are amazing. The "hot" version is just like buttered juicy lobster on a grilled bun, kind of a pure lobster flavor, perfect with a nice side of crispy french fries. But most places will also sell a "cold" version similar to what Claire is making here, basically with a Lobster salad that gives you a nice creamy texture and lots of herbs. Both will hit the spot depending what mood you're in.

[@Wookie_Tan]

“These spices are a little old” that’s how you know you’re back home

[@Amero2323]

I inherited my mom's house a few years ago and there were things in the cupboards and in the basement that were easily older than me, and I turn 41 in a few months. My mom was particularly crazy when it came to throwing food away.

[@rebeccachatwin]

These are just like New Brunswick style the way my mom makes them. Split buns and all! Love it.

[@KaghenTV]

These past few weeks have been rough for those of us who don’t eat/like seafood, but I continue to watch anyway! Claire is my life force.

[@scpatl4now]

Celery Salt is also great for the flour coating for fried chicken. I use it whenever I am making a coating for frying. Tarragon is also really good in chicken salad (I don't know why I am on some chicken kick today). Lobster rolls are even better than dessert!

[@nickcutler3802]

For those who are saying Claire as become the Seafood Person as opposed to the Dessert Perons consider this. If you say the Lobster is sweet it can count as a dessert. Big Fan btw.

[@Enmanuelsella]

Having just moved away from MA, these Cape episodes are really hitting the spot.

[@AlexandraAndStuff]

Ohhh, I'm excited for this one. Also, I would LOVE if Claire showed us a traditional way to make Viennese apple strudel!

[@haruharudude]

I wanna know how they make those sausages!

[@ClaireHao-kz1tb]

Please write a savory cookbook!!! I always love your savory recipes as much as your sweet ones.

[@haoyunchou1467]

I would love to see Claire make New England style hotdogs buns from scratch 😊

[@LinA-it9vd]

I’m surprised she didn’t. I always make them and no Old Bay please.

[@91frankthetank]

Yes!!!!

[@janehowe25]

She is so perfect!!! She’s every woman. We love her.

[@Wilhelm_Scream]

The amount of peace these videos bring me 🧘

[@IsinMoon]

I am LOVING all the seafood recipes lately (I’m pescatarian lol)

[@CyberZane07]

Binge watching Claire because I'm working a 12 at the hospital. Keeping me sane😂

[@wvusciguy]

Me too!

[@bluesquirrel2472]

Hospital workers gather up 🎉

[@samuelthomas7486]

This gives me comfort vibes. LOVE being at home with Sauci

[@gretchenalice4395]

The two hallmarks of any parent kitchen...expired spices and not-quite-sharp-enough knives.

[@Tom-d1e]

Very impressed with this recipe. Can't wait to try it

[@chasefedak7020]

Omg yay!! I’ve always wanted to try a lobster roll and these look so yummy

[@kellyspaghettti]

If you can't find tarragon, using fennel instead of celery is a great sub. Same texture as celery with some anise flavour

[@lillian5753]

I needed this vid to get me through midterms 😭😭Ty Claire!!!

[@dalpio]

Loving this series on Cape Cod foods! Hope to see more seafood recipes

[@truedamageprestigeedition]

I agree, nothing is better than lobster rolls. !!! I missed it so much!

[@codymanthey5694]

I was just in cape cod and I really enjoyed the lobster rolls. Alot of interesting history too especially about the pilgrims

[@arianemariano3807]

I prefer Connecticut but both are absolutely delicious! 🦞 ❤

[@stephenaustin3026]

Happiness is a warm bun.

[@aliciacummings3942]

Love this series!

[@MaureenDrees]

These look delicious! The video is reminding me of a childhood trip to Maine when our family was able to go out on a lobster boat.

[@MrGamerCaptain]

more coastal stuff, interesting!

[@jonap5740]

Gosh those looked good. I love tarragon with seafood.

[@jgmdsn667]

Recipe sounds solid....my family was in San Fran at the Pier and splurged for a couple of lobster rolls. Sadly destroyed by *way* too much tarragon, so a word to the wise. Honestly, the tarragon was nearly all you could taste-a little does go a long way indeed! Thanks for the recipe! Home cooks: be very conservative with the tarragon.😊

[@jenniferspaeth2757]

That just made me so happy! Would love to run into you up there. I eat many lobster rolls when I am on the Cape - mostly from Sesuit Harbor Cafe - but I have never made one. I may need to try it.

[@AliciaCardwell]

Love the cooking videos!!!!

[@loveinthematrix]

Hi again mama . Ugh I love Cape Cod. So beautiful

[@DebWashington]

I can’t wait to make this, thank you!

[@laurenschenck5355]

MY FAVORITE I LOVE LOSTER ROLL! ❤

[@cynthiablagg4507]

Love you and your videos!

[@Ottokae20]

The giraffe is the cutest

[@mariaochoa4969]

I just curbside ordered everything to make this for dinner! Sounds delicious 😋

[@kathykaehler7304]

looks delicious !!

[@ksmith96]

Did she say 'cayenne' ? Chef John approves. 😉

[@indyinvy]

Y'all have a great production team! Is that the Vinny? Like Brad's Vinny??

[@ArgentAbendAzure]

Vincent Cross. It's him.

[@jessicaberger2619]

More treats for spud please ♥

[@SideDishCooking]

Claire! Do you have a good recipe for the split-top hot dog buns? I have the pan and have made descent ones, but I never get the softness I am looking for any suggestions you might have would be amazing!

[@mockfanatik]

I love lobster rolls!!! I would love to see you do desserts from Germany, I lived there for 5 years and now I have been trying to find a good recipe for Dampfnudeln! Ohhh those are the best!

[@Gucciblackberry]

I love this place

[@bonnaroobanzai7521]

Sullivan’s at Castle Island in South Boston has some great lobster rolls. Right on the other side of the bay. Yum

[@BrendaAnderson]

Yum!! I live in New Zealand now but I used to live in Southie. Sullivan's brings back such great memories.

[@monami1359]

Yum! How about khachapuri next? Thanks!

[@hamishjackson4907]

I crave a lobster roll and a visit to Cape Cod I've never had a lobster roll and have yet to visit Cape Cod

[@laurenschenck5355]

Looks so fresh and amazing beautifully done Claire ❤

[@unit--ns8jh]

I want to eat this sooo much 😫! BTW, great mayo and mustard noises 🙂

[@maryblakley3590]

I love getting a lobster roll whenever I visit the Maritimes.

[@enbyrage]

verdict: mmm

[@Grizlore]

looks amazing

[@Issor_Rossi]

Seen this coming, it's cape cod after all

[@Jhetx]

Aaaaaw, they made lobster rolls as well on the Bon appetite channel, the Thanksgiving episode. I do miss them all together which is odd cos i mainly skipped to Claire, Carla and Molly’s sections.

[@NotContinuum]

Summer lobster rolls! Just in time for Fall.

[@jzakibe]

I love the Connecticut style lobster roll. But I have to say, Claire’s version looks fantastic.

[@deidrecalabro5725]

Claire is definitely in vacation she's didn't even make the bun😂 I want one looks delicious 😋

[@mdrodassa3784]

Potatoe bread would be so gooood

[@kittenamy1]

I live on cape cod and I’m very disappointed I haven’t yet spotted that wild roaming giraffe 🦒 anywhere! 😂

[@cpp8227]

This look amazing!! Just wondering if the giraffe is a member of the Saffitz family on Cape Cod?

[@AussieAngeS]

I’ve never had a lobster roll😍 gosh those look amazing

[@yippeehaha24-y1y]

Looks so good! I'm a New Englander but I found the lobster rolls in the region tend to be way too plain. I'll have to try your recipe.

[@onemightymill]

WOW!!! Claire you got me hungry at my desk again... and it is only 10:30 AM

[@Debba521]

Those lobster rolls looked fab! Gotta love Harris, I'm with him, no produce on burgers (bacon & cheddar, yes)! Had to laugh at the giraffe in the window 😂. What happened to Spud's ear? Spectacular cat fight? Thanks for the fun and yummy video. 😊

[@QueenAlia]

Spuds ear is probably tipped to show they’ve been spayed/neutered. Especially if spud was once a stray cat, that’s a signal that a cat has been TNR’d and no need to trap them again😊

[@Lucifer-bv6ts]

i gasped when i saw this in my feed omggggg

[@laurenschenck5355]

OMG! Looks magnificent delicious mouth watering ❤

[@imsusy1]

Would love to learn how to make the buns.

[@gorgess]

I’ve yet to try a lobster roll or soft shell crab but I hear great things 😇

[@deanmrogers]

This looks delicious! But my experience with lobster rolls is that locals prefer them very simple and they may have *opinions* about all the add ins. ❤

[@katherine7444]

Man I needed this recipe months ago when it was actually lobster season

[@spicybeantofu]

I've got some imatiton crab Im gonna try this with

[@premelosv]

that looks bombbb

[@asharooni]

Where I live in Canada those buns are called “new England style” hot dog buns ☺️

[@pegparrish3512]

Absolutely perfect, Claire!! You definitely have created the most sublime recipe for lobster rolls and the celery salt is an important key ingredient! I used to only use it for Bloody Marys but these days, it finds it’s way into many dishes in my kitchen! Thanks for another great video! 😘

[@ThatSuzanneSchmid]

one of my favorite things

[@IMARRIEDACHIKIN]

Can you explain if theres a difference between using european style butter vs the “normal” american butter? It seems like lately whenever i use european butter the baking comes out waaay to oily

[@bethanderson2940]

Claire - love love everything you do but I can’t agree with mustard in a lobster roll!!!!!

[@zacr4664]

People need to embrace a good hotdog bun. When foods have multiple pieces a hotdog bun is much less messy. (Lobster roll, pulled pork/chicken, chicken salad, etc.)

[@mattslivovsky3468]

yum delish

[@cassermck]

I had no idea what a lobster roll was before but this looks great! I'm glad you're buttering the bun, it's a pet peeve when people don't haha.

[@LunaMail]

Oh my! I wish I had access to fresh lobster. Despite not being a fan of mayo, this looks absolutely delicious! Always love seeing your creations, Claire! 😊 [I wonder how subbing out normal mayo for Kewpie/Japanese mayo would go? Now I want to try! 🤔]

[@pandoraeeris7860]

Yer a lobstar!

[@IzumisChild]

Not a fan of cold lobstah rolls but it's Claire and lobster so I'll watch. XD

[@TheChanning]

this recipe is SOO important

[@RubyChopsticks]

I miss how cheap lobster rolls are in New England when I visited Maine last year. Here in the midwest it's on average $30-40 a roll 😭

[@broadwaybound1010]

12:53 i actually said out loud “spud gets a treat?? oh fuck yeah!!!!” there is nobody else home

[@inalesgwuuus5972]

Every time I see “Verdict” I know a “MMM” is coming😊

[@sirskit5888]

omg yummers

[@jeffersonjefferson2883]

Oh Claire...Now I want a lobster roll and a Grady's...Cheers

[@awhisperfromunderneath]

Has Claire's verdict ever been anything other than "MMM"? 😂 I genuinely can't recall

[@TheFluffyBubble]

yum

[@lilmamacpa3062]

The thing that is holding me back from making lobster rolls at home is the scary issue of having to kill the lobster. I live in the Midwest so I feel like the only way to get truly fresh lobster is to buy a live one and I just don’t know what to do with it! I don’t want to have to kill it with a knife. That, and the fact that I’ve never in my life seen top split hotdog buns for sale here (or whatever they’re called) so I would have to make them myself. I absolutely love lobster rolls and spend way too much of my vacation budget on them whenever I visit the northeast, but I haven’t yet been brave enough to try making it at home. And I’m a good cook (kind-of). Claire, help!!!

[@ferociousbee]

You don't have to kill it before cooking! I'm guessing that since Claire steamed it, the lobsters were cooked while alive. I think a great reference in learning how to prepare lobster is an old Alton Brown Good Eats episode titled Crustacean Nation II. His advice is to set the lobsters in the freezer for a little bit to sedate them, then set them in a large pot lined with river rocks (a large steaming set up, basically) to quickly steam and cook the lobsters. For the buns: do you have a trader joe's nearby? That's where we pick up our split buns here on the west coast.
