I'm not sure if I did something wrong, but my artichokes turned out a bit mushy.

I've never had steamed artichokes before, but I'm glad I tried them. They were so much better than boiled or fried artichokes.

I'm allergic to tarragon, so I substituted lemon mayonnaise instead. It was still very good.

These artichokes were a bit bland. I think I'll try adding some more herbs and spices next time.

The tarragon mayonnaise was a bit too heavy for my taste, but the artichokes themselves were cooked perfectly.
