Fresh Produce
The common artichoke is one of the most under appreciated vegetables because of the level of difficulty and time commitment involved in preparation to eat them fresh - but once you learn how to do it and get the hang of how to prepare them for cooking you'll look forward to the short season with excitement! There’s a world of difference between the small, oily little guys that come jarred or canned and the ones fresh from the market.
Eating a fresh artichoke in some ways could be compared to eating a box of cracker jacks, you have this stuff to eat surrounding what you really want…the PRIZE (the artichoke heart)! The artichoke heart is like the 9th circle of heaven for artichoke lovers, the texture is luscious and juicy with a mild nutty flavor that is excellent dipped in melted butter or garlic mayo and are extremely versatile! If you haven’t tried a fresh choke yet, now’s the time, they’re big and at their best.
