To get started with this recipe, we have to first prepare a few components. You can cook how to prepare artichokes using 2 ingredients and 12 steps. Here is how you can achieve it.
The ingredients needed to make How To Prepare Artichokes:
- Take 1 as many (to taste) Artichokes
- Make ready 1 lemon per about 10 artichokes Lemon juice diluted in water
Steps to make How To Prepare Artichokes:
- Have a bowl of lemon water ready, and dip your palms and fingers in the lemon water. (This prevents your fingertips from turning black.)
- Start peeling off the outer petals. When you reach the section where the bottom petals are tender as shown, chop off the stem and dip it in the lemon water.
- The core of the stem is tender and edible, so trim off the outer ring of fiber and dip the core in the lemon water.
- Trim off the hard green parts off the calyx, and dip the remainder in lemon water.
- The tips of the petals are hard and fibrous, so cut them off.
- Cut off the hard parts of the petals (the red parts) at a 45 degree angle, and dip the artichoke in lemon water.
- Cut the artichoke in half. If the center is hard (if it’s prickly to the touch), cut it off, too.
- Soak the prepared artichokes in lemon water, until they are ready to cook.
- Artichokes are fresh when the petals are tightly furled and haven’t started to open. The stems are edible if they can be cut through easily with a knife.
- Artichokes are very astringent, so dip them in lemon water frequently while cooking. Wipe your fingertips with lemon as you work to prevent them from turning black.
- Basically, all of the white or tender parts can be eaten. In Step 6, the centers of the artichokes I had were tender even if they were red, so I didn’t cut them out.
- It doesn’t bother me, but if the scent of the lemon is too strong, you could also soak the artichokes in water with 1 tablespoon of flour, or with plenty of chopped parsley.
