About this episode
Today on the show we are talking all about one of the world’s great foods: Maine Lobster , harvested directly from the cold waters of Maine, which give it its unique and sweet taste. First up is a great conversation with Ham El-Waylly . Ham is the chef-owner of the buzzy Brooklyn restaurant Strange Delight , and he tells us how Maine Lobster has been a big part of his culinary career. We talk about how he thinks about cooking with lobster and where he is spotting it on menus around the world. We also sent Ham a box of Maine lobsters to cook with at home. The results were pretty amazing. Also on the show, we speak with journalist Luke Pyenson . Luke traveled to Maine to report a story for TASTE, and we find out where he went and who he met—and, of course, hear about all the Maine Lobster he ate. We discuss Maine Lobster’s deep commitment to sustainability and how chefs both in Maine and around the world are cooking the sweetest lobster on earth in an exciting way. Finally we catch up with a Maine lobsterman, Curt Brown . Curt is a marine biologist, and he shares what life is like on a lobster boat as well as how he actually cooks with lobster at home. Curt has some real kitchen skills. Read : Maine Lobster in Technicolor This special episode is supported by the Maine Lobster Marketing Collaborative .
