Ingredients
- 18-inch loaf brioche, ends trimmed off, cut into slices ¼-inch thick
- 21½-pound lobsters
- 1½teaspoons unsalted butter
- 1shallot, peeled and minced
- 1½cups shiitake mushrooms, stemmed and cut into ¼-inch cubes
- Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
- 2½tablespoons sevruga caviar
Preparation
- Step 1
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Use a 3-inch round cookie cutter to cut out one circle of brioche from each slice. Flatten the rounds, and fit them into the cups of a miniature muffin tin. Bake until the bread is lightly browned, about 10 minutes. Let cool slightly, and remove from the tin.
- Step 2
Steam the lobsters until they turn bright red, about 10 minutes. When cool enough to handle, remove the tail and claw meat, and cut it into ½-inch chunks. Set aside. Melt the butter in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the shallot, and cook until softened, about 30 seconds. Add the mushrooms, and cook until they soften, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
- Step 3
Place half a teaspoon of the mushrooms into the bottom of each brioche cup. Top with 2 pieces of lobster, and garnish with ¼ teaspoon of caviar. Serve immediately.
