Why Size Is Important When Picking Out Lobster Tails - Tasting Table

So you want to buy some frozen lobster tails, and you're trying to figure out how best to do so. One thing that's important to remember, according to Reader's Digest, is that smaller lobster tails have better flavor and texture. While it can be fun to crack into a giant lobster tail, it actually won't be as delicious an experience, with the outlet explaining that smaller tails are sweeter and have a smoother texture than larger ones.

So, how small is small? The Chopping Block recommends looking for tails that weigh between five and 12 ounces each. The site also counsels making sure frozen lobster tails are sourced from cold water, buying them frozen, not thawed, and avoiding any tails that have been soaked in sodium tripolyphosphate, a chemical that The Fish Site explains is potentially toxic. Plan for one lobster tail per person, Better Homes & Gardens advises, bust out your kitchen shears, and get ready to melt some butter and dig in.
