Tips:
- Choose fresh artichokes: Look for artichokes with tightly closed leaves and a heavy feel. Avoid any artichokes with brown or wilted leaves.
- Prepare the artichokes properly: Trim the stem and the sharp tips of the leaves. Cut the artichokes in half lengthwise and remove the fuzzy choke from the center.
- Marinate the artichokes: Marinating the artichokes in a mixture of olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, and herbs helps to infuse them with flavor and prevent them from browning.
- Cook the artichokes until tender: Artichokes can be cooked in a variety of ways, including boiling, steaming, and roasting. Cook them until they are tender but still slightly firm.
- Serve the artichokes with your favorite dipping sauce: Artichoke nibbles are traditionally served with a dipping sauce, such as aioli or ranch dressing. You can also get creative and try different dipping sauces, such as hummus or tzatziki.
