Directions
Boiled Artichoke With a Garlic Butter Dipping Sauce, Very easy instructions for how to boil an artichoke and make a tasty dipping sauce , I’m from New Orleans where artichokes are pretty much a staple I make them often and have a little hint I’d like to suggest After I cut the top inch, the edges of the leaves, and a little bit of my stem off, I rub a half a lemon all over my artichoke allowing the pulp get caught in between the leaves then squeeze the juice all around it but over the pot I’m boiling my artichoke in Not only does this give it flavor, it also stops the artichoke from turning brown during cooking , One additional tip: the stem is essentially the same as the heart so don’t cut too much of it off It is the best part I would also like to point out that it is fun just to sit around the table eating artichokes together throwing the remains into a large center bowl on the table
