For the lobsters: Bring a large pot of salted water to the boil. Prepare a bath of icy water. Kill the lobsters by placing them on their backs on a cutting board and inserting a knife tip into their heads between the antennae. Drop the lobsters in the boiling water for 20 seconds and immediately shock them in the ice bath to stop the cooking. Extract the tail, claw and knuckle meat from the lobsters. The meat will still be translucent and raw.

Recommended wine: Chablis, Chardonnay

Lobster on the menu? Try pairing with Chablis and Chardonnay. Chablis is perfect with lobster, but a chardonny from other regions is bound to hit the spot too. The Samuel Billaud Chablis Premier Cru Les Vaillons Vieilles Vignes with a 4.7 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 33 dollars per bottle.
