Homarus
americanus
This species is commonly known as the Atlantic lobster, and are also
known as Northern and American lobster. Worldwide, they are often
referred as the "King of Seafood" and are definitely the pride of
Atlantic Canada. They are fished in the cold, pristine North Atlantic
waters off Canada and the U.S., both in shallow inshore areas and
deeper offshore waters.
Lobsters
belong to a group of animals called Arthropods having a hard shell and
jointed appendages. The Atlantic lobster has five pairs of legs, one
set being large claws. These claws distinguish them from rock and spiny
lobsters from warmer waters throughout the world. Edible meat from both
claws is delicately textured and succulently flavored, truly a one of a
kind taste experience.
The
body, tail, legs and claws are all hard-shelled. Live lobsters range in
color from greenish-brown to dark brownish-rust. When cooked, they turn
bright red. The resulting white meat is pleasantly firm and dense, rich
in taste and succulent in flavor. Most certainly, "fit for a king."
At
one time, seafood was thought to be high in cholesterol, especially
lobster. It is now known that lobster is a good source of
polyunsaturated fats and omega-3 fatty acids, which fight cholesterol
buildup and prevent heart disease. Following is the list nutritional
