For an even smoother bisque, use an immersion blender to puree a portion of the soup before adding the lobster. If you don't have cooking sherry, you can substitute with dry Marsala wine or additional white wine. Fresh herbs like thyme or parsley can be added during the simmering process for extra depth of flavor. Adjust the amount of cayenne pepper to suit your spice preference. A pinch of smoked paprika can also add a lovely smoky note. This bisque can be made ahead of time. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Gently reheat before serving, adding the lobster just before serving.
