Par cooked lobster and Tomalley- is it cooked?
Im sure theres a more technical term for this, but Im going to be flash boiling lobster for 4 minutes for a lobster risotto recipe. When I do that, will the tomalley be thoroughly cooked or not? I havent eaten it before but am determined to get the most out of this lobster lol

The tomalley should be firm when fully cooked, same as the roe, so I’d give it a touch test. Also if you are stirring it into the risotto it will cook further. Fair warning, there IS some recent concern that, because it is a filter organ, it can contain environmental toxins. Not to poop on your parade and I think it’s fine to use it this time but I wouldn’t run around eating it every week or anything.
