Lobster Bisque
We modified Mary Englebreit’s Tomato and Rice Shrimp Bisque recipe (which we love!) to create this velvety Lobster Bisque. ‘Tis the Season, page 30. Reserve some of the Lobster Meat, place in the middle of the bowl, pour Bisque over it, and garnish with Flat-leaf (Italian) Parsley.
I had Steak Diane for the first time at the Duck Soup Inn on San Juan Island, WA. I asked John if he would make it for me and we found this wonderful recipe from a fellow-blogger.
