Lobster Ravioli

Sourced from our friends at Saltscapes Magazine, recipe from Chef Tracy Wallace. 
INGREDIENTS
Filling:
10 oz. (295 g) lobster, cooked and diced small
6 oz. (170 g) cream cheese
1 tbsp (15 mL) parsley, chopped fine
½ tbsp (7 mL) lemon juice
hot sauce, to taste
cracked black pepper, to taste
​
Chive pasta dough:
3 cups (750 mL) all-purpose white flour
4 eggs
2 tbsp (30 mL) water
½ tbsp (7 mL) olive oil
1 tbsp finely chopped chives
​
Sauce:
4 tbsp (60 mL) white wine
1 tbsp (15 mL) roasted garlic
1½ cup (375 mL) whipping cream
4 tbsp (60 mL) parmesan
Directions:
To make filling: In a bowl, mix lobster, cream cheese, half the chives, half the parsley, lemon juice, hot sauce and cracked pepper until mixed evenly. Note: You can do this in a food processor and it can be prepared in advance, up to a day ahead.

To make pasta dough: Mix all ingredients in kitchen aid or food processor to form a smooth ball. Let rest for one hour at room temperature. (Note: You can also store this in fridge for up to 24 hours until you’re ready to use.)
​
To cook pasta: While heating a pot of boiling water, roll out pasta as thin as possible, make two sheets of pasta dough, egg wash one sheet and stuff with 2.5 oz lobster filling. Put sheet without egg wash on top. Cut out with large 3 inch round cutter and pinch edges together. Reduce heat to a simmer; blanch pasta until al dente about 2 – 5 minutes and cool in an ice bath.

To prepare sauce: In a saucepan on medium heat, add white wine, roasted garlic and the rest of the herbs. Reduce by half, and then add pasta and cream. Simmer until cream thickens. Garnish with remaining chopped parsley and chives. Makes 8 servings or 8 large ravioli.

Pam's Creamed Lobster

Legend has it that this dish originated in the fishing communities within Yarmouth, Nova Scotia. Passed down through generations, while there are many iterations of this traditional dish, the original distinguishing- and required - ingredient, in addition to fresh winter landed lobster, is vinegar. Shared with us by ‘Lady Loves Lobster’, Pam Wamback, joined us in our test kitchen to guide us through her family recipe. As an informed and passionate ‘all things’ lobster aficionado, this recipe proved easy, incredibly rich and so very tasty. Made with thawed Lobster Made Easy lobster, when you make this dish, you’ll be welcomed into a family tradition, a recipe perfected over the years, enjoyed by generations. Wamback Family Creamed Lobster (on toast)
INGREDIENTS
1 lb lobster meat (cooked and shelled, or thawed)
1/8 cup of salted butter
1/2 cup white vinegar (double check its not past expiry) 
1 cup whipping cream
1 cup of half and half cream
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper 

Directions:
​In a large frying pan, melt butter.
Add cooked (or cook) diced chucks of lobster to butter, frying pan on medium to high.
Cook lobster until ALL the butter is absorbed by the lobster.
To the pan, now add 1/3 to 1/2 cup of white vinegar, it’ll sizzle and it should.
Cook off vinegar, until there is none in the pan, the lobster has now absorbed ALL the vinegar.
*stir constantly so it doesn’t burn!
With 1 cup cream in one hand + 1 cup Half and half cream in the other, pour into the lobster at the same time. (It won’t curdled in the lobster - as long as you’ve ensured vinegar is all absorbed by the lobster)

Then  … watch the butter come back out of the lobster - the cream takes on a lobstery colour, as the butter is released from the lobster. Stir constantly until thickened.
Try not to ‘overcook’ as the lobster will get ‘tough’.
And finally, it’s ready.
Pour over toast - as the Wambacks do, preferably homemade bread, toasted. 
Or, try it on mashed potatoes, french fries … you choose, AND, yes - it’s ok to lick your plate!
