How long do I boil a lobster per pound?

                            Bring water to a rolling boil over high heat. Place lobsters in the pot (head first), cover tightly, return to a boil as quickly as possible and start counting the time. Steam a lobster for 7 minutes per pound, for the first pound. Add 3 minutes per pound for each additional pound thereafter..

                            Similar to shrimp, retailers describe scallop sizes by a range of numbers indicating how many of them there are in a pound. The smaller this number range is, the larger (by weight) the scallops are.

                            Carefully put the bowl on the rack, cover, and steam for 8 to 10 minutes. Test the fish for doneness by poking the thickest party with a chopstick or fork.

                            The average serving size of bay scallops is one half pound. These scallops are presented shell-off and there are about 60-80 per pound..
