lobster shells
Red seafood remnants
Lobster shells are the hard external covering of lobsters, left behind after the meat is removed.
In cooking, they're often saved to make stock or bisque, lending rich flavor to seafood dishes.
The phrase can also refer to empty shells discarded after a lobster meal: The table was covered with lobster shells and drawn butter.
