ROASTED ARTICHOKES WITH RICOTTA AND PEAS
The key to roasting artichokes is to make sure to trim away all of the tough, leathery outer leaves until only the soft pale ones in the center remain. It may seem like you're throwing a lot away - and you are. But because roasting encourages crispness, any borderline-fibrous bits will toughen up even more, becoming impossible to chew. So for the most tender vegetables, stay on the side of over-trimming, rather than under-trimming. In this recipe, the browned artichokes are tossed with fresh herbs, peas and plenty of olive oil (use your best bottle), then scattered on top of lemony ricotta cheese. Serve this, with or without crostini, as an appetizer or part of a light supper with a salad.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 375 degrees.
- Squeeze one lemon half into a large bowl of cold water. Pluck off all tough leaves from one artichoke, until you reach leaves that are pale and soft. Using a vegetable peeler or paring knife, peel stem and trim base of artichoke, then dunk it in lemon water to keep it from browning. Cut off the top 1/3 of artichoke and discard. Slice artichoke lengthwise into quarters; remove any inner purple leaves and scoop out the fuzzy choke if there is one. Put the quarters in the lemon water and leave them there as you cut remaining artichokes.
- Drain the artichokes, shaking them well to remove excess water. On a rimmed baking sheet, toss artichokes with oil and salt. Roast until golden and tender, 25 to 35 minutes, tossing them halfway through.
- Meanwhile, bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil. Slip in peas; cook for 1 to 2 minutes until tender, then drain.
- In a medium bowl, stir together ricotta, lemon zest and kosher salt to taste. Spread out on a plate, and top with peas, artichokes, mint, flaky sea salt and lemon juice to taste. Drizzle generously with olive oil. Serve with crostini if desired.
ROASTED ARTICHOKES WITH PARMESAN BREADCRUMBS
Artichokes were one of those vegetables that really intimidated me. They just seemed so hard to prepare. But, once you get the hang of it, it's really easy. I like to serve mine with a lemon-garlic aioli for dipping.

Steps:
- For the artichokes: Preheat the oven to 475 degrees F. Cut the lemons in half and squeeze the juice into a bowl. Add water.
- Trim the top 1 inch off the tops of the artichokes. Use kitchen shears to trim the pointy edges off the leaves. Trim the ends of the artichokes. Cut the artichokes in half through the centers. Use a spoon to scoop out the fuzzy chokes and the purple leaves. Place the artichokes in the lemon water as you work to prevent them from browning.
- Shake off the water from the artichokes and place, cut-sides down, in a small baking dish coated with cooking spray. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bake until the artichokes are tender, 25 minutes.
- Meanwhile, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil in a small skillet. Add the panko and cook until toasted, about 2 minutes. Remove to a small bowl and let stand until room temperature, about 10 minutes. Stir in the lemon zest, Parmesan and parsley.
- Make the lemon-garlic aioli: Stir together the mayonnaise, lemon juice and garlic in a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper.
- To serve, turn over the artichokes and sprinkle with the panko mixture, stuffing some between the leaves. Drizzle or dip with the aioli.

Steps:
- In a shallow Dutch oven or braising pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the shallots and garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft but not browned, about 5 minutes. Add the olives, white wine and capers and cook about 2 minutes.
- Halve 6 of the cleaned artichokes and place them in the braising liquid. Add the tomatoes and their liquid and season with salt and pepper. Be sure to taste, as the olives and capers can make the sauce very salty. Cover the mixture, bring to a simmer and cook over medium heat until the artichokes are tender (a knife should go through without resistance) and the liquid has reduced by half, about 40 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Drop dollops of the ricotta cheese on each artichoke, then top with the grated Pecorino. Bake in the oven covered for 20 minutes. Uncover and bake until golden brown, about 25 minutes.
- In the meantime, heat 2 inches canola oil in a Dutch oven or fryer to 350 degrees F. Slice the remaining 2 artichokes extremely thin using a mandolin slicer or by hand. Pat the slices dry with paper towels. Drop the artichoke slices into the hot oil and fry until golden brown and crispy, about 5 minutes.
- Top the baked artichoke with the fried artichoke slices and tarragon serve.
Tips:
- Choose the freshest artichokes you can find. Look for artichokes that are heavy for their size and have tightly closed leaves.
- Trim the artichokes properly. Cut off the stem and about 1 inch of the top of the artichoke. Then, use a pair of kitchen shears to trim the sharp points off of the leaves.
- Roast the artichokes until they are tender. This will take about 30-40 minutes in a 400 degree Fahrenheit oven.
- Let the artichokes cool slightly before serving. This will make them easier to handle and eat.
- Serve the artichokes with your favorite dipping sauce. Some popular options include melted butter, olive oil, or a vinaigrette.
Conclusion:
