Artichokes recipes


To prepare artichokes recipes

Break off the stalk of the artichoke by bending it until it comes away from the base; the stringy parts will come away with the stalk. Using a very sharp knife, cut the base flat and then remove the tough outer leaves. Neatly trim the outside of the artichoke, then cut off the top and remove the choke. Rub with lemon to prevent it going black, even if it is to be used immediately.
