Pour in a little of the infused milk and whisk to a smooth sauce. Continue cooking for 1 minute, stirring all the time. Stir with a wooden spoon until a paste forms. Put over a medium heat and once the butter has melted, add the flour.

Wipe out the pan and add the butter, cayenne pepper and mustard powder.

Cook the pasta in a large pan of boiling water following the packet instructions.

Pour in the milk and bring up to the boil, then turn off the heat and leave to cool and infuse for 20 minutes, then strain into a jug, discarding the shells and seasonings.

Put the onion halves, bay leaves, garlic and peppercorns into a medium pan with the shells from the lobster tail and the cracked legs.

(Reserve the tail and leg shells from both lobsters.) Chop all the lobster meat and set aside in the fridge until needed. Discard the dark stomach sack and use a pick or skewer to extract the meat from the legs. Arch the back of the lobster until it cracks to remove the tail, bend flat and break off the shell to extract the meat.

Remove the lobsters claws by twisting them off the body, crack with a nutcracker or a small hammer to break the shell and remove the flesh.

My favorite is just a touch of smoked paprika, but again, this is a big personal decision so go with what sounds good to you! Once you have your final sprinkle, bake at 350 for about 40 minutes until it's hot and bubbly. If you just want a little color, consider some dry parsley and fresh cracked pepper.

Tarragon is nice, but can be overpowering to the light sweet lobster flavor so be careful. A lot of recipes call for a bit of nutmeg, but I'm not a fan. We need a *little* something as a final sprinkle. Sprinkle the breadcrumbs over the top and pause for a moment. Add the pasta, fold to combine and pour it all into a large baking dish. Pour this sauce over the cooked lobster and stir in the shredded cheeses. In another pan, create the roux by melting 6 T of unsalted butter and whisking in a half cup of flour. Cook over medium/medium high heat for a couple of minutes, then whisk in the milk a bit at a time to create a nice creamy sauce for your pasta.

Warm 1 quart of milk in the microwave or on the stove without boiling or scalding - you just want to get it hot so that when you add it to your roux you don't get lumps! Turn the heat up to medium high and stir fry for about 3 additional minutes. Add the lobster meat and season with salt and pepper. In your largest pan, add the shallots, garlic and olive oil. Cook over medium heat for about 3 minutes or until the garlic and shallots are softened. I like to do this in the dish that ultimately goes in the oven to save on washing. Shred 4 cups of Gruyere cheese and two cups of sharp Cheddar cheese and set aside.

Optional seasonings - tarragon, nutmeg or smoked paprika.

1 pound slipper lobster meat (or the meat from Maine lobster tails if you prefer).

2 large shallots, chopped (or half a sweet onion works great too!).

About 8 ounces extra-sharp Cheddar, grated (2 cups).

About 12 ounces Gruyere cheese, grated (4 cups).
