Ingredients of Lobster Spaghetti at Restaurante La Venus

Our Lobster Spaghetti is crafted with the finest ingredients to ensure an exceptional meal. Here’s a look at what goes into this delectable dish:

• Extra virgin olive oil – For a rich, authentic Mediterranean taste.

• Fresh lobster tails – Tender and flavorful, cooked to perfection.

• White wine and Pernod/Ouzo – Adding depth and aromatic notes.

• French shallots and garlic – Bringing a subtle sweetness and bold flavor.

How We Prepare Our Lobster Spaghetti

Our Lobster Spaghetti is meticulously prepared using traditional methods combined with a touch of modern culinary techniques:

1. Cooking the Lobster

   • We start by briefly cooking fresh lobster tails to make it easy to extract the delicate meat. The lobster is then cooled in iced water, ensuring the meat remains tender and flavorful.

2. Creating the Perfect Sauce

   • Our chefs sauté French shallots, garlic, and a pinch of chili flakes in extra virgin olive oil, allowing the flavors to meld perfectly. The sauce is then enhanced with fresh cherry tomatoes, white wine, and tomato purée, simmering until it thickens into a luscious base for the lobster.

3. Final Touches

   • After gently folding the lobster meat into the sauce, we finish the dish with a touch of cooking cream, lemon zest, and fresh herbs like parsley and chives. The al dente spaghetti is then mixed into the sauce, ensuring every bite is bursting with flavor.
