Globe artichokes



Article/Recipe: Have a heart.

Dealing with globe artichokes. Comes with a recipe for artichoke and bacon tart.

Simply cooked and slowly plucked until the meaty heart is revealed, the largest artichokes need the least complicated of additions to make a feast. Unadulterated melted butter is hard to beat, though a little adulteration rings the changes. Try our anchovy butter, or melted, salted butter with a few chopped thyme leaves (lemon thyme in particular), a little lemon juice and a few grinds of black pepper.
