      2 mins and I've broken down my first artichoke without wasting anything.
      Times like this I think: those who can, should teach!

    Finally someone who doesn't throw away the stem of the artichoke! It's actually one of the best parts.

      Yet, discarded 70% of the edible part. Fail.

    I learnt that you take the choke out of the artichoke after cooking in water with lemon and olive oil and place a poached egg or mushroom puree.

    Brilliant. A true artist. I wish I had the opportunity to eat an artichoke that fresh. Must be something just this side of heaven. So beautiful. It fascinates me that something that starts out so ‘ugly’ and non-eatable becomes so delicious and special to eat.
    Artichokes, one of nature’s sweet treasures.
    My daughter asked for artichokes to be served at her 5th Birthday party. Still makes me smile. Helping these small children to the wonders of the delicate world of the artichokes. Not one of them had ever seen one before. We still eagerly await this precious gift of spring.

    This is just one way to prep it but not the only way. I like the bottoms of the leaves and the center of the stem. It's used for several dishes in Europe that I can't find anywhere in the US and I have to make them myself. I lived in S Europe for years and I still own land there...including an artichoke farm as a matter of fact.

    Correct me if i'm wrong, is artichoke has an aftereffect that everything that eaten by someone who consumed artichoke before will taste the next food sweeter that it should?

    He does the same thing with all sorts of vegetables. He cuts away more than half. I've seen him remove half an onion when he "cleans" it. Here he cuts away at least 2/3 of the artichoke. Such waste!

      Did he not say those leaves are dipped in butter? I imagined steaming then dipping them to scrape off. This probably should have been a longer video to show all the different uses he was prepping for.
