I give this recipe one mit without the addition of another 2.5 tablespoons of lobster base and 8 ounces of white wine. It gets 4 mits after those additional ingredients have been added.

I’m sorry, but you need more than one tablespoon of lobster base to make a large pot of soup taste like a seafood bisque. I added another 2 and a half tablespoons of lobster base, and it probably could have taken a full 4 tablespoons. Once that was done, the bisque was…well…just OK. Nothing to write home about. Without the extra base that I added, it reminded me of Bar Harbor canned lobster bisque…it tasted like a hot, steaming bowl of fresh air. After the additional base was added…it really wasn’t worth the time and effort, or the expense of the lobster base.
