I tripled the recipe so I could feed more people and: Adjusted cream and tomato paste to taste; cutting the ratio of cream a little and upping the tomato paste until a rich pink color was achieved Added cooking sherry to taste 4 dashes of Cayenne pepper 2 tsp Smoked Spanish Paprika Mixed in bits of lobster And fresh steamed corn cut off the Cobb, at the end while still piping hot Garnished liberally with chives and a leaf of fresh flat leaf parsley - cracked fresh pepper on top
