How long do I bake lobster for ?

[Clanad]

I see you've asked this question in two sections and still no answers. My problem, living, as I do, in the U.S. (and I consider myself an expert on live Maine lobsters or lobstahs as heard anywhere north of the Pemaquid Point Lighthouse on Muscongus Bay, State of Maine) is determining if you mean a live lobster or a frozen, packaged lobster tail.

In the first case the lobster is popped into rapidly boiling water (in which a bag of carefully prepared herbs has been previously placed) and taken out just as the lobster turns thoroughly bright red. Simple as that. In the second case, I wouldn't have a clue since I never touch faux lobster...

Best of luck!

If the lobster is red it's already cooked - baking it would make it leathery. Raw lobster is greyish & boiled (turns red) to cook.
