About Connecticut-Style Lobster Roll:

The Connecticut-Style Lobster Roll is a regional variation of the classic lobster roll, originating from the Northeast region of the United States, particularly associated with the coastal state of Connecticut. Unlike its counterpart, the Maine-style lobster roll, which features lobster meat tossed in mayonnaise, the Connecticut-style version emphasizes the pure, sweet flavor of fresh lobster meat, served warm and lightly buttered in a toasted bun. The simplicity of the ingredients allows the natural sweetness and succulence of the lobster to shine through, creating a decadent yet understated culinary experience. Connecticut-Style Lobster Rolls are a cherished summertime treat along the Connecticut shoreline, enjoyed by seafood enthusiasts seeking a taste of the ocean's bounty in its purest form.
