What it is

Lobster stock is a liquid made by simmering lobster shells, heads, and sometimes other seafood parts, such as fish bones or shrimp shells, in water. This process extracts flavor and nutrients from the lobster and other ingredients. The resulting broth is often strained to create a clear, flavorful liquid base.

Why it's used

Lobster stock is primarily used to add a rich, savory seafood flavor to dishes. Manufacturers add it to enhance the taste of soups, bisques, sauces, seafood stews, and pasta dishes. It provides a depth of flavor that is difficult to achieve with other ingredients.

Health notes

Lobster stock is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a food ingredient. It is a source of protein and minerals. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated similar seafood-derived ingredients. Evidence does not suggest adverse health effects from consuming typical amounts of lobster stock.

Allergen info

Lobster stock is derived from shellfish, which is one of the nine major allergens recognized by the FDA. Individuals with shellfish allergies should avoid products containing lobster stock.
