O/S means off season and occurs September to June.

This year is the year of the lobster here in Shelburne County. I encourage everyone to take some time this year, gather the family and enjoy one of the most delicious meals you can have. One of the best ways to enjoy leftover lobster is to make a dip. This recipe is one I use and it seems to satisfy. I take it when ever there is a shower, or when friends gather. I like to chop my lobster and onion up together in a food processor which makes it very fine. My mom (who I got the recipe from) likes to just chop with a knife which makes for bigger chunks. So which ever you prefer. Add as much lobster and onion as you like. I use about a small handful of onion and twice as much lobster as I do onion. Blend the other ingredients together first and then add the lobster and onion.
