FAQs
1. Can I make the risotto in advance?
While risotto is best served fresh, you can prepare the base and add warm broth just before serving to rehydrate the rice.
2. Can I use a different type of seafood?
Absolutely! Scallops, shrimp, or even crab can be used in place of lobster for a delicious alternative.
3. How do I know when the lobster is done cooking?
Lobster is cooked when it turns opaque and the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).
4. Is this dish suitable for special diets?
This dish is not gluten-free due to the butter and risotto. However, gluten-free pasta can be used as a substitute for the risotto for a gluten-free version.
