Artichokes will start appearing soon. Mostly from outside the Hudson Valley where I live, but they are fresh non the less. Baby artichokes (called baby because the "choke" is not fully formed) take little cleaning before cooking. Larger artichokes take a bit more trimming and the "choke" needs to be removed. Once cleaned the artichokes can be steamed, boiled roasted, deep fried or grilled. Bellow is a recipe for marinated artichokes. They can be used in salads, pies, quiches, pizzas, pasta dishes, etc. So simple and so good.
Marinated Artichokes
2 pt artichokes, cleaned, halved and steamed
½ c extra virgin olive oil
1 ea lemon zest
1 sprig Thyme, fresh
2 ea garlic clove, smashed
1. Combine all ingredients and marinate under refrigeration for 24 hours.
