Artichokes

(View Full Screen)
Ready in about 45 minutes or less!
  • Artichoke(s)
  • -- For the pot of water --
  • Salt & Pepper
  • Dill
  • Basil
  • Cayenne
  • Garlic
  • Lemon
  • -- For the dipping sauce --
  • (Butter & Lemon) or (Ranch)
    First trim the chokes. Cut off the stalk, right to the bottom of the bulb part.
Now cut off the top thistle ends. About one-fourth to one-third down from the top. Wash out in cold water.

I like to season the water with salt and pepper to taste, and some herbs, dill and basil are good, and other peppers, cayenne, white pepper, or pasilla, lemon and garlic.

Next place the choke in boiling water (I personally fill the water so it covers 2/3 of the choke), cover with lid, reduce heat to simmer, and steam for 20 to 40 minutes (depending on size) -- they are done when the leaves pull away easily.

Then when they are done, let them cool off, I turn them upside down in a bowl so all the water drains out.

Melt some butter and add some lemon for the dipping sauce. If you don't want to use butter, you can use ranch.
