Who doesn't love artichoke? But cooking this delicious vegetable may make some people scratch their heads...and I can't say I blame you. It just does not look very inviting. It's easier than you may think though. And I will tell you a simple and tasty way to get this from the market to your table.
Ingredients:
- Artichoke
- Garlic powder
- Pepper
- Mrs. Dash (original blend)
- Melted butter or Mayo (optional) for dipping
Place steam basket in large pot. Add enough water to come just to the bottom of the basket. Too little water will boil out of the pan before the artichoke is finished cooking. Cover pot and heat water on medium heat until steaming, then turn down to medium low Slice the very top of the artichoke off, and also about 1/2 inch off the stem and wash thoroughly. Place the artichoke in the pot, stem down, and sprinkle top with the spices listed above. Cover and let steam for two hours. Artichoke is done cooking when leaves pull off easily. Serve with melted butter (spice it up with the listed spices) or mayo for dipping.
Cheers!
