I LOVE artichokes, and living in California makes it pretty easy to eat them year round. The only thing that stops me is the CRAZY effort I have to go through to get one prepped and cooked… Cutting, trimming, steaming, making sure to replenish water to the pan during steaming to prevent burning your pan, removing hot…wet…flimsy artichokes from a crazy-hot pot, and THEN finally adding whatever dressing/flavors I wanted… AND sometimes I’d take it one step further and grill the little jerks (which of course tastes great).
Well, here’s the end of fussing over artichokes! This is, in my opinion, a much less labor intensive way of getting these guys cooked and tastes better too! Not to mention way easier clean up.
