Can’t remember if I posted this or not I cooked them in late February. These are great if you haven’t had them. Cut the points off with scissors, half it, scoop the choke out, then I used a steam pot till they were tender crisp, seasoned and took to the grill. Any sauce you like to go with it.

Never had one but I'd try that

They are good. We steam them, then pour lemon juice, olive oil, garlic and salt and pepper on them and then grill them. They don't last long.

The heart is the reward for going through all the leaves and there is a technique to eating the leaves. I’ve seen people toss a leaf in their mouth and try to chew it up. Lol

Dang they are some count. Like ticks mentioned is how we do them. There is a technique, right or wrong I pull the meat off the leaf with my teeth.

Has anyone ever grown one, this will be our first year to try. Love a good artichoke with hollandaise sauce.

This looks fantastic, have had them but never tried making them myself. Gonna have to change that

That’s how we were taught, too. Hold the tip, bite down gently and pull to scrape the meat between your teeth.

That’s how I do it too. However watching someone try to eat the leaf is funny.

It taste too dang good to care how awkward it looks.
