  • 1
    Combine all ingredients except the lobsters, place over high heat, and boil for 10 minutes. Add the lobsters to the boiling liquid and cook for 8 minutes. Remove the lobsters from the liquid and allow them to cool. When cool enough to handle, make a small incision between the eyes to let out the excess water.

    Cut all the leaves around the artichokes until only the bottoms remain. Quickly place the bottoms in a quart of water with the lemon juice, oil, and a generous pinch of salt. Cook for 10 minutes.
  • 3
    Parboil or steam the asparagus spears until barely al dente.
  • 4
    Peel the celery and cut in small julienne, then blanch until barely cooked.
