Lobster Pot Pie

Editor's note: The recipe and introductory text are from Brooke Dojny's book The New England Clam Shack Cookbook, 2nd Edition. At Shaw's [Fish and Lobster Wharf], their lobster pot pie is something like a lobster gratin — a rich and luxurious dish in itself — made more so with its buttery crumb topping. Because it can be made ahead and reheated just before serving, this lobster pot pie makes an ideal meal for a special dinner party.

Mustard-Roasted Salmon with Lingonberry Sauce

Cranberry sauce or huckleberry preserves can be substituted for the lingonberry preserves. Serve with: Roasted fingerling potatoes tossed with dill, and a mixed green salad.

Saffron Risotto Primavera

Start this meatless meal with artichokes filled with a lemon mayonnaise for dipping, and serve the risotto with a mixed green and cherry tomato salad and a basket of toasted herb bread. To polish things off, set out a purchased raspberry tart.
