Overall, I thought this was a good recipe. The artichokes were cooked well and the tarragon butter was tasty. I would make it again, but I might try adding some other herbs or spices to the butter to give it a little more flavor.

This recipe was a bit too complicated for me. I think I would have preferred a simpler recipe with fewer ingredients.

These artichokes were a disaster! They were overcooked and the tarragon butter was too salty. I do not recommend this recipe.

I thought this recipe was just okay. The artichokes were a bit bland and the tarragon butter didn't have much flavor. I wouldn't make this again.
