Regarding the stock, I had used some canned frozen lobster for the lobster ravioli recipe, so I squeezed out the juice/broth from there and reserved it. That gave me about 1 cup of stock, and I added another cup of chicken stock. You can use all chicken stock, but it won't be quite as pink, or have the same lobster flavor. If you should be fortunate to have lobster stock, feel freeze to use it. Add the stock to the butter and flour.

Stir in the cream and adjust seasonings with salt and pepper. You could spice it up with a little cayenne if you want.

Ingredients:
-
1.0 each Onion small, diced1.0 rib Celery diced1.0 clove Garlic minced1.0 each Carrot peeled, minced1.0 tsp. Thyme fresh, minced1.0 tsp. Tarragon fresh, minced1.0 each Bay Leaves1.5 lb. Lobster2.0 tbsp. Cognac3.0 tbsp. Tomato Paste2.0 lb. butter unsalted
Instructions:
1.
Clean and prepare the first 6 ingredients.
2.
We only need the lobster shell and legs. To prepare the lobster, you can either cook it whole and reserve the meat for another purpose, or cut it up raw. I needed raw meat to make the lobster ravioli, so I cut it up whole.
3.
To quickly kill a lobster, place the point of the knife at the first seam behind the eyes (about an inch or more back).
4.
Pierce the shell, straight down, and then cut forward between the eyes. Then cut the remaining body in half.
5.
Coarsly chop up the shell. You need the proper knife for this; I'm using a Japanese style deba. Then finish chopping the shell in a food processor. The finer the shell, the better.
6.
In a large saucepan, melt some of the butter (about two tablespoons). Add the first 7 ingredients and saute over high heat for about 3 minutes, stirring constantly. Add the lobster shells and the cognac, and stir for another 3 minutes. Lower the heat and add the butter and tomato paste. Simmer for about 3 hours. Strain, pressing on the solids. Then, strain again through a triple thickness of damp cheesecloth.
