Ingredients
- 4 large or 12 small artichokes
- Melted butter, Vinaigrette, mayonnaise, or lemon wedges, olive oil, and salt for serving
Instructions
- Follow the illustrations below for preparing whole artichokes.
- Rig a steamer and add the artichokes bottom up. Cover and cook until an outer leaf pulls away easily and its meat is tender, 20 to 40 minutes.
- Drain them upside down for a minute or 2 longer before serving hot; store upside down if you plan to serve them later. Melted butter is best with hot artichokes; or serve at any temperature with vinaigrette, mayonnaise, or lemon juice and olive oil, and of course, salt.
