610012
The European lobster (Homarus gammarus), also known as blue lobster, is prized for its refined flavour and firmer, more delicate flesh than its Canadian counterpart. Caught in the cold waters of the Northeast Atlantic, it is offered live in a 400–600 g size, ideal for individual servings.
Its dark shell with bluish hues contains pearly white, dense flesh with a subtle and long-lasting ocean taste. Carefully selected by Le Delas, your trusted wholesaler in Rungis, this live product ensures optimal freshness and consistent premium quality for fine dining use.
Culinary uses
Can be cooked whole (poached or steamed) or split and grilled. Its delicate meat works well in medallions, ravioli, bisques, or warm salads. Perfect for festive mains such as roasted lobster, lobster à l'armoricaine or citrus-dressed starters.
