Our new Maine Lobster Carpaccio and Maine Lobster Ceviche have both been selected as finalists in the International Boston Seafood Show 2009 New Product Competition.
Both of these products are raw, but FDA certified ready to eat! How can that be? It's the magic of our Big Mother Shucker. We treat the sealed packages with extremely high pressure, killing pathogens even more effectively than cooking. No heat, no chemicals, just water and pressure. The results are the delicious, contemporary flavors and textures of raw seafood with no risk.
Maine Lobster Ceviche is a retail package of two servings. The raw lobster meat is in one pouch and the zesty accompaniments are in another. Thaw, mix the ingredients in a bowl, chill and serve with tortilla chips. An affordable, unique lobster treat!
Maine Lobster Carpaccio is a fantastic foodservice item. Slice thin medallions from the frozen 7oz package and they quickly thaw on the plate. Drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle on salt, pepper, lemon zest, and garnish for a wonderfully delicious, attractive and unique appetizer. The thin slices mean each package goes a long way--toward lower food costs and lower menu prices, perfect for today's cash conscious diner.
We are proud to say that we are the only company with two finalists in this year's contest. Wish us luck, and come by our booth (2056) if you are at the seafood show next week.
The Cape Cod Times visited us at the International Boston Seafood Show and convinced us to give them a sample:
"Shucks...has helped revolutionize how people think about lobsters. Chefs who want to do fancier dishes than boiled lobster have traditionally had to laboriously extract raw lobster meat from the crustacean. But Shucks now offers packaged raw meat to restaurants that has been "cold pasteurized" by the Avure machine for a seven-day shelf life. The efficiency and cost savings of using a machine also has allowed Shucks to get more creative in how it packages and markets lobster meat. Now, lobster parts such as claws can be packaged together. For instance, Shucks offers what it calls lobster spaghetti, thin strands of meat taken from the legs, that usually take so much time to extract they are almost not worth the effort."
Governor Baldacci announced a commission to pursue MSC Certification for Maine Lobster. Shucks is proud to have our President and CEO, John Hathaway as a member of the group.
“The Maine lobster brand is known the world over for its quality and high value,” Governor Baldacci said, “and we know that the lobster resource is sustainable thanks to the efforts of Maine lobstermen. Obtaining certification by the Marine Stewardship Council is an essential step in protecting and enhancing our brand and making sure that Maine lobsters can compete in markets around the world.”
