Handmade pasta (French Laundry recipe - incredible) and sous vide lobster in tomato sauce. Forgot how satisfying making your own pasta is

So you only used the tail meat? Saved the claws, knuckles and legs for another use? Thanks for the write-up!

Thanks! I killed the lobster with a knife then removed its tail. As soon as I lowered it into boiling water I turned the heat off and let it steep for 1 minute. Then I shocked it in ice water and cut it open to remove the flesh. I put the flesh in a zip lock bag with about a quarter cup of butter and cooked it at 50C for 15 minutes. Cooked the pasta, warmed the sauce, added the pasta with a bit of pasta water and some butter to the sauce and tossed to emulsify (this step is very messy if you don't have a high sided saute pan). Then added basil and Parmesan to finish. To be honest, I added the lobster to the warming sauce too early and it firmed up, but I actually liked the firmer texture in contrast with the soft pasta. Cheers!
