The flavor of artichokes has been described as sweet, lush, and "green," according to The Kitchn. Both the meat of the leaves and the hearts are delicious served with accompaniments like herbed lemon butter or dipping sauces. Or, you can serve this great finger food without a sauce. To eat, simply pull out the leaves and scrape the tender flesh from the leaves with your teeth, and enjoy.
As for artichoke preparation, steaming is an easy method. The Kitchn says it can be done without much work: simply trim the stems (and optionally the top) and place them in a steamer basket or wire strainer over a boiling pot of water. Andrew Zimmern's YouTube preparation involves first stripping some of the outer leaves, cutting them into quarters, and scooping out the fibrous "choke" part of the plant. This leaves behind the heart and the tender leaves, and these quarters can be cooked in a variety of ways, according to Zimmern's website; recipes include fried artichokes with lobster, braised artichokes and asparagus barigoule, and deep-fried artichokes with lemon aioli.
Another reason to add artichokes to your vegetable rotation is their nutrient content. According to The Kitchn, artichokes provide fiber, vitamins C and K, and folate. Zimmern provides advice for choosing artichokes: look for firm, heavy artichokes with tightly-closed leaves and no browning where the stalk was cut. Finally, don't be intimidated by artichokes! With advice from a great chef, you'll have them mastered in no time.
