How to Make It
1. Step
Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
2. Step
Boil the lobster tails in salted water until just cooked through, about 12 minutes. -- Cook 1 minute per ounce (28g).
3. Step
When cool, remove the meat and dice. Set aside.
4. Step
Toss the breadcrumbs with 1 tablespoon melted butter, 2 tablespoons parmesan cheese, and black pepper.
5. Step
Cook the pasta in salted boiling water until al dente, about 7 minutes.
6. Step
Drain and set aside.
7. Step
In a large sauce pan, melt the butter over medium-low heat.
8. Step
Add the flour and whisk, cook about a minute.
9. Step
Add the Cognac and whisk. The mixture will thicken immediately.
10. Step
Slowly add the milk, while whisking.
11. Step

Add the sharp cheddar, Comte and parmesan cheeses, one handful at a time, whisking to incorporate. When one handful is melted, add the next.
