Categories     Sauce     Steam     Artichoke     Boil

Number Of Ingredients 2

1 lemon
4 globe artichokes (12 ounces each)

Steps:

  • Prepare a bowl of water large enough to hold all of the artichokes. Peel 1 lemon with a vegetable peeler, then cut in half and squeeze the juice into the bowl.
  • Remove any tough outer leaves from artichokes. Working with one artichoke at a time, use a serrated knife to cut off the top quarter of each. Use kitchen shears to trim sharp tips of the leaves. Remove any small leaves from bottom and trim stem just enough that artichoke can stand upright; place in lemon water to keep it from turning brown while repeating with remaining artichokes.
  • Fill a large pot with 2 inches of water; set a steamer basket (or colander) inside pot, and bring water to a boil. Place the lemon peel and artichokes, stem ends down, in basket. Cover and steam until bases of artichokes are easily pierced with the tip of a sharp knife, about 20 minutes.
  • When cool enough to handle, use a small spoon to scoop out center cone; scrape out purple leaves and fuzzy choke. Serve artichokes with dipping sauces, as desired.
