To make lobster: Remove lobster tails and claws from shells. Cut tail in half lengthwise and marinate in the refrigerator in 3/4 cup of Ginger Vinaigrette for 1 hour. Mix daikon, carrots and kaiware. Add a touch of salt and pepper and toss with remaining 1/4 cup vinaigrette. Reserve.

To serve, divide julienned vegetables among 6 plates. Arrange chilled lobster meat on top of vegetables.

Note: Because of the possibility of salmonella bacteria in raw eggs, FOODday home economists recommend using pasteurized eggs, available at Trader Joes.

Note: Wolfgang Pucks kitchen makes ginger vinegar by adding peeled and sliced fresh ginger to champagne vinegar, bringing it to a boil, then letting it sit off heat for several minutes to allow the ginger to infuse the vinegar.

Note: Daikon, an Asian radish, kaiware and sambal oelek are available at Asian food markets. - Courtesy Wolfgang Puck, created for the 2002 Governors Ball
