Time 45m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 2

4 medium artichokes
Melted butter, if desired

Steps:

  • Remove any discolored leaves and the small leaves at base of artichokes. Trim stems even with base of artichokes. Cutting straight across, slice 1 inch off tops of artichokes and discard tops. Cut off points of remaining leaves with scissors. Rinse artichokes with cold water. To prevent discoloration, plunge entire artichoke into 4 cups cold water mixed with 1 tablespoon lemon juice.
  • Place steamer basket in 1/2 inch water in 4-quart Dutch oven (water should not touch bottom of basket). Place artichokes in basket. Cover tightly. Heat to boiling; reduce heat. Steam 20 to 25 minutes or until bottoms are tender when pierced with knife.
  • Pluck out artichoke leaves one at a time. Dip base of leaf into melted butter.

I've been steaming artichokes for years and this is the best recipe I've found. The artichokes are always perfectly cooked and the lemon-herb butter is to die for.

I've tried steaming artichokes before, but they always came out tough. This recipe was the first time I've had success.
