Most people think of Lobster Bisque as a high calorie decadent creamy soup. The Bald Chef’s rendition is lighter and healthier than most recipe you will find. In this recipe we will show you step by step how to make and cook this best Lobster soup. In classic French cooking Bisques are often thickened with rice. Most individuals assume Lobster Bisque is a cream based soup. My recipe is made by cooking a seasoned Seafood stock and then flavoring it with a Mirepoix ;2 Red Onions, 3 Stalks of Celery, and 4 Carrots. When these vegetables are cooked flour and butter are add to create a roux. The seafood stock is added along with Tomatoes to give the Lobster Bisque it designative color. Only a small amount of butter and cream are used and this recipe has about half the calories of your conventional Lobster Bisque recipe. On the upside this recipe is chuck full of sweat Lobster Meat.

  1. That looked perfect Glen! Super nice color and just the right amounts. I'm sure you ate that whole bowl and probably another one too! Stay warm my friend! Cheers!

  2. Good GAWD Glen!………do NOT forget I'm a phone call away my friend!  This looks AMAZING!  5 Stars all the way!!

  3. It's freaking freezing here too.  I could sure use some soup.
    Dear Lord Glen … You have more lobster recipes than anybody I know.  🙂
    That bisque looks might fine my friend.

  4. Glen that looks fantastic. I've never tried lobster bisque before but I love lobster itself so I know I'd love this.

  5. I found you through Larry. Man I love that stuff. I would bet Maine lobsters are much better than that rock lobster. Both are good but I prefer NE lobsters. Much sweeter and more meat. 

    That + is confusing to me. I remember when I could only get on the internet using a 9.6 modem and only been able to get on bulletin boards.Then came AOL and the 14.4 modems. I thought that was screaming roller coaster fast. Now look at us today. I can't figure out plus lol

  6. It is freezing here in PA. That lobster bisque looks mighty inviting Glen. Great recipe. I love lobster too. Thanks. Neil

  7. Wow Chef Glen that's looks so delicious, gonna add to my favorites and try it soon. Can I do it with shrimp or crawfish?

  8. I always have read that a true Bisque is made with rice instead of a roux, this looks more like a stew or chowder

  9. That does look really good.  It was kind of funny when you were talking about never getting a bowl of lobster bisque in a restaurant and getting no pieces of lobster. That first bowl that you served had almost all the lobster you put into the whole pot.  The next few bowls after yours are not going to have but a few pieces at the most.  Just messing with you. Hey, you prepared and cooked it, you should be able to enjoy the best of it. Cool video and really awesome recipe. I will inculcate some of your techniques into my lobster bisque recipe next time I prepare it. Thanks for your input.

  10. Gonna try to make this recipe this weekend. Will let u know how it turns out. Where in dc area are u getting ur lobster tails? I'm in the area too. Was thinking H mart.

  11. Followed your recipe and technique to the letter (except I used sherry instead of brandy).  Came out fabulously, as good as any I've ever had in a restaurant.  Good job and thank you!

  12. I've seen a few YouTube videos on here for this recipe and I must say yours is pretty good for first timers trying out this recipe. It looks delicious!!!

  13. My friend made this for a dinner party and it was the best I have ever had…going to try making this myself!

    My family loves it and we have it every full moon.

  15. This is my favorite recipe for lobster bisque.
    I used to make the stock in a much more complicated and time consuming method with other parts of the lobster as well, and I’ve found the method in this video to taste better somehow. I think over complicated stock is over rated, you really just need the taste of the shells, every thing else can make the stock bitter ( gills and other parts) Just my opinion.
    Anyway great recipe, I’ve made it probably 10 times now and everyone loves it. Thanks!

  17. day 92. We're gonna add some hopes and dreams, maybe a few more unicorn horns…

  18. Your recipe looks interesting and reasonably classic (except the solids are usually strained out instead of blended, no?). I’ll probably substitute a dab of tomato paste in place of diced tomatoes. Thanks for your recipe. But dude, all your “uhhs” and “ahhs” are very distracting.
