Ask anyone from across the United States what first comes to mind when they think of Maine, and it’s lobster, but when you arrive in Maine you’ll realize that the beloved way to eat lobster is actually the “Lobster Roll.” It can be served warm with melted butter on a toasted top split hot dog roll or the more favored way of a lobster salad, served cold on a top split roll. If you go to one of the local favorite shacks, you’ll have a roll that is packed with meat from an entire lobster. While I’ve always been a purist and love my lobster steamed with drawn butter, the lobster roll is a great way to enjoy lobster without the mess. Plus, the lobster, roll, bites of celery, and mayonnaise work together in pleasing the palate.
What I’ve done here is make the lobster roll a beautiful appetizer that everyone can enjoy. While the lobster roll is something that is casual, these appetizers will have all of your guests impressed, and with the meat of just two lobsters you can make 24 of these. It’s more bang for your buck!
If you don’t prefer lobster, you can substitute with shrimp or crab meat. Or, if you want something similar but don’t care for seafood at all, go ahead and make these with a chicken salad. By using store bought phyllo cups you can have these whipped up in no time. If you decide to purchase whole lobsters and clean them yourself for meat, please enjoy the small legs for yourself or save them, along with the body, for a fabulous bisque!

Great idea… but you cook the phyllo, right?

On these no, I simply let them come to room temperature as they are already cooked and don’t need to be warmed or crispier. I’ve done it both ways but since the filling is cold the shell doesn’t retain its heat and by the time you serve them to your guests they are cool.
