Preparation

1. In a medium saucepan over medium heat, add shallots, lemon zest, lemon juice, water and cane sugar.

3. Add celery and broad beans to butter mixture and cook on medium-low for 5 to 8 minutes. Add tarragon and season with salt and pepper.

4. Arrange lobsters on 4 serving plates. Spoon the vegetable/butter mixture over lobsters and top each equally with shaved Castello® Aged Havarti cheese.
