A bisque is a thick, creamy, highly-seasoned soup of French origin, classically made with puréed crustaceans. A bisque can be made from lobster, crab, shrimp, or crayfish. Also, sometimes creamy soups made from vegetables rather than seafood are called bisques.
The French say the name is derived from "bis cuites," meaning "twice cooked," because the crustaceans in bisques are first sautéed lightly in their shells, then simmered in wine with aromatic ingredients, before being puréed.
Lobster.COM's bisque is not frozen, but fresh. It is a thick, creamy, mildly-seasoned specialty. Although Lobster.COM's puréed bisque never contains large chunks of lobster, it is famous for its chewiness. Imagine a beautifully creamy smooth subtle tasting soup that is also chewy.
So rich, you can serve it in demitasse cups.
Servings: One quart is an appetizer for two or a major treat for one. |
