Home cooking attempt — Lobster Roll from scratch

I spent an afternoon making Lobster Roll from scratch following a traditional recipe. Getting sharp cheddar right was the main challenge — it's not as straightforward as it looks. The rich and indulgent result was rewarding once I got it right.

American cuisine is a mosaic of immigrant traditions adapted over generations. I served it with craft IPA as the recipe suggested and the pairing made sense. It took longer than I expected but the outcome was genuinely satisfying. Making Lobster Roll yourself gives you a new appreciation for what goes into it at a restaurant.
