Lobster Baskets
1 loaf unsliced firm white bread |
Trim end crusts from bread; cut loaf crosswise into six one inch thick slices. Trim enough crust to make each slice 3" square, then cut each into 9 small squares. With a sharp-tip knife, hollow out squares to make tiny baskets. Brush with melted butter; place on a cookie sheet. Bake in moderate oven (350º) for 12 minutes, or until golden brown; cool. Drain lobster, mix with mayonnaise and lemon juice in a bowl. An hour before serving, spoon lobster into baskets, using about 1 tsp each. Makes 54 baskets. |
