Default Seafood

Hi

How can you tell if you are cooking boiled lobster safety (enough)?

Can't really take it out half way and check the flesh so how to do it?

Advice would be most gratefully received.

Many thanks in anticipation.

Default Seafood 2

Hi again, i forgot to ask:

How can you tell when any seafood is safely cooked?

I really find this a difficult area to be sure about. I tend to overcook to be safe but then my compromise quality.

Any ideas?

Hi,
I steam lobsters until they turn red, about 6 to 8 minutes for small and medium.
