As a huge fan of lobster rolls, if I could point out one thing for folks: mind the bread.

Too much bread or a bread without a complementary flavor (e.g. buttery flavor) or too strong of a flavor can absolutely ruin a good lobster roll. You gotta let the lobster shine.

I love lobster rolls but as those above me stated you lost me at reduced fat mayo and hot dog buns don't cut it.



These are lobster rolls on New England style hot dog buns not your regular ball park hot dog buns. They should be toasted in butter before loading. If you don't have access to this type of bun try something like thick cut Texas Toast as seen below.


PS that recipe also makes a killer crab roll. :)

I suggest pairing a Falanghina or Tocai Friulano, a couple of Italian whites, or, a bit easier to find, a good Chenin Blanc .

Also, I suggest regular mayo, tarragon, chervil and parsley for the lobster

Great topic

Nice to see another wino posting here :)

You are spot on about the mayo especially if you are making your own and add tarragon, chervil and or parsley. Chervil and parsley are closely related, tarragon comes in two varieties French and Russian the French is more aromatic and the Russian more bitter. I find with tarragon a little goes a long way but I do mix parsley and chervil more than occasionally and like to add tarragon to fish dishes and my tarter sauce.

Let me add that if you turn this into a crab roll use good lump crab meat, the white meat from the body usually found towards the back where the swim fins are. King crab leg meat is also acceptable mixed with some lump meat but I would stay away from using just claw meat from blue crabs.

Thanks for the wine suggestions on these recipes. Im starting to get in to wines. Ive had a problem with drinking things that werent ice cold, so red wines have been an issue for me.. but im starting to like some Pinot Noirs.
