Petals of savory artichoke leaves are so delicious dipped into a creamy lemon aioli. It may seem intimidating to roast whole artichokes, but the steps couldn't be simpler—and the earthy, comforting flavor is a definite payoff. —Taste of Home Test Kitchen


Test Kitchen tips
  • To clean an artichoke, rinse under cold water. Use a soft kitchen brush to gently remove a natural, light film produced as it grows, which can give artichokes a bitter taste.
  • The edible parts of an artichoke are the base of the petals, the center core of the stem and the heart. The fuzzy choke at the center is not edible.
