  • Choose artichokes that are heavy for their size: This indicates that they are fresh and have a lot of meat.
  • Trim the artichokes properly: Cut off the stem and the tough outer leaves. Then, use a spoon to scoop out the fuzzy choke from the center.
  • Cook the artichokes until they are tender: Artichokes should be cooked until they are tender when pierced with a fork. This usually takes about 20 minutes.
  • Use a good quality broth: The broth is the base of the soup, so it's important to use a good quality broth. You can use chicken broth, vegetable broth, or even seafood broth.
