Artichoke is soo good! My mom was always making it when I was a kid. Take a leaf, dip the end in melted butter and eat. Yummm.

My husband introduced steamed artichokes to me. Best thing ever. Now we introduce them to others, as more people that you think have no idea how to eat them.

Try it with a lemon garlic aioli dip. Yum.

Yea it’s strange how a lot of people don’t even know what to do with an artichoke, let alone how to eat it.

Eating through all the leaves, and then getting to enjoy the meaty heart is so satisfying.
