BAKED ARTICHOKES WITH CRAB AND SOURDOUGH STUFFING
Artichokes, an Old World food, came to America with Italian immigrants and found a happy home in the near-Mediterranean climate of California. As "ethnic" fare, artichokes took their time catching on outside the Golden State. They finally did in the thirties and became something of a fad. Artichokes were not limited to the vegetable course, either. Sometimes the center "choke" was scooped out and the hollow filled with a stuffing for a fashionable light lunch entrée.

Steps:
- Melt butter in heavy medium skillet over medium heat. Add bell pepper, onion, celery and garlic. Sauté until onion is translucent, about 6 minutes. Transfer to large bowl and cool completely. Mix in breadcrumbs and crabmeat. Season stuffing with salt and pepper. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate.)
- Preheat oven to 375°F. Cut off top third of each artichoke; discard. Cut off stem. Pull out yellow and small purple-tipped leaves from center. Using melon baller, scoop out fibrous choke.
- Gently pull leaves outward from center until leaves open slightly. Pack stuffing into each artichoke cavity and between first and second center layers of leaves, mounding slightly. Place artichokes in 13x9x2-inch baking dish. Add enough water to come 3/4 inch up sides of dish. Cover with foil. Bake artichokes until outer leaf pulls away easily, about 1 hour 15 minutes.

Tips:
- Choose fresh artichokes: Look for artichokes that are heavy for their size, with tightly closed leaves and no signs of bruising or wilting.
- Prepare the artichokes properly: Trim the stem and remove the tough outer leaves. Cut the artichokes in half lengthwise and scoop out the hairy choke from the center.
- Stuff the artichokes generously: Don't be afraid to pack the artichoke halves full of crab cake filling. This will ensure that each bite is bursting with flavor.
