Chris

As an executive chef by trade.
Bring on the blue lobster for a feast for all who eat lobster.
One lobster for me
One lobster for you
one lobster for each one of us

What a beautiful catch.

Yes chef but once you cook it, they all turn red.

The article even said that heat breaks down the pigment and it will be red once cooked. I think you are wrong, please reread.

Hey chef Elias, I am also an exec. chef and let this one stay away from the heat. The blue pigment will remain if we use it for garnish (thin layer of gelatin) and utilize the meat in a ceviche, tar tar or carpaccio.
