How My Family Makes Artichokes
10 mins prepServes 2
I’m still shook at how many people haven’t experienced artichokes 😩 I grew up eating these as a special treat with my fam, but in my adult life I’ve learned that many people haven’t tried them! Get the recipe below for how my family makes them‼️
Bring a large pot of water to boil and add in a generous amount of salt. Place in the 2 artichokes to cook, making sure they’re covered by water (or at least mostly covered). Cover the pot and boil the artichokes for 45 minutes-1 hour. You can tell they’re done when you can easily stick a butter knife stuck into the stem area (it should be quite tender). Remove from the water and set aside.
Place butter in a microwaveable dish and microwave for about 30 seconds, or until melted. Add in the garlic and lemon juice.
Serve the cooked artichokes with the butter mixture and a side of the grated cheese. Enjoy!
