In this Three Kitchens Podcast episode, we take on the fresh artichoke, and the results are, well, you'll see.
It may be that the artichokes imported to our corner of the Canadian Prairies are sub-par. Perhaps they're harvested too soon or they're actually old. We're not sure, but we do know that the ones Heather attempted to roast for us had basically no "meat" to them. So, we reluctantly have to file this one away in the FAILS category of home cooks recipe testing. However, a cooking fail often makes for an entertaining podcast episode. We hope so, anyway! We always have fun even if the recipe doesn't work out in our favour.
If you're lucky enough to get decent artichokes where you live and are new to cooking them, you can still learn a few things about artichokes from this episode:
Heather tells us about a quick recipe for baked canned artichoke hearts that simply involves topping them with a butter, parmesan cheese, breadcrumb and roasted lentil mixture and heating them through until the topping is golden. You get the artichoke flavour without the risk of getting a dud of a fresh artichoke.
