Lobster, apple pie, sweet corn, and tomato salad make up a meal that reads as distinctly American, with the lobster pointing to the Atlantic coast and the pie to a long home-baking tradition. Corn and tomatoes peak in late summer, which is when shore dinners like this were most often served in New England. The pairing of seafood with garden produce and fruit shows how regional cooking drew on whatever was local and in season. On a board devoted to fruit and vegetable labels, the apples are the clearest link to the collection.
