Dangerous little creatures these guys – I’m a Scorpio, I know these things. Although referred to as a “dessert lobster”, whether these villains of the beach taste anything like their main-meal counterpart, I can’t be sure. Flash-fried in oil, they are meant to taste like salted peanuts but when lightly boiled or steamed, they have a prawny/shrimpy flavour. I suppose I will just have to try them to find out.
