Steve Chu, chef and co-owner of Ekiben in Baltimore, MD, is in the Munchies Test Kitchen making Typhoon Shelter Lobster, the best lobster dish you’ve probably never heard of. This recipe, based on a popular style of crab preparation in the typhoon shelter areas of Hong Kong, features deep fried fresh whole lobster and a unique pepper salt mixture Steve prepares by toasting black and Szechuan peppercorns in salt before blitzing the spices together. The dish features flavors like ginger, cilantro, garlic, and jalapeno, plus stir-fried pork with soy sauce, fish sauce, and Shaoxing wine. The final dish is guaranteed to impress any guest.
