Record 1 2006-05-11

English

Subject field(s)
  • Crustaceans
CONT

Moulting or soft shelled lobster.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Crustacés
DEF

Homard s'étant récemment débarrassé de sa carapace pour faciliter la croissance.

CONT

Vous pouvez acheter un homard à carapace molle pour beaucoup moins cher qu'un homard à carapace dure mais ce n'est pas une aubaine en bout de ligne. [...] Celle-ci est molle, gorgée d'eau et un peu insipide parce que le homard utilise sa propre masse musculaire pour se refaire une nouvelle carapace.
