Lobster Roll with Welsh Seaweed Black Butter

Ah yes the magnificent Lobster Roll, originally made famous on the East Coast of America where they traditional serve it with mayo or drawn butter in brioche style hot dog rolls. Now I have yet to make to the east coast of America but I was fascinated by the idea of lobster rolls they just sounded lush. Unfortunately for some reason lobster was not part of my diet growing up in West Wales? But over the years I have learnt that American lobster is bigger and cheaper compared to our native sweet little lobsters and that putting it in a roll was not a good idea as it is so expensive, but it sounded so good so had to give it a go. Lobster rolls with a Welsh Sea Black butter has been a staple of the travelling beach shack menu since 2010 and it has one many fans across the country. It is the best lobster roll I have ever had, ok I may be biased but that sweet lobster cooked in the Welsh Sea Black butter is just simply divine. Wherever I see lobster rolls on the menu I have to buy one (essential research?) it is always served cold with mayo or other garnishes, yeah they’re good but Lobster with Welsh Sea Black Butter is exceptional.
