artichoke

The globe artichoke, French artichoke or green artichoke, is a variety of a species of thistle cultivated as a food.
The globe artichoke (Cynara cardunculus var. scolymus), also known as French artichoke and green artichoke in the USA, is a variety of a species of thistle cultivated as a food.
The edible portion of the plant consists of the flower buds before the flowers come into bloom. The budding artichoke flower-head is a cluster of many budding small flowers (an inflorescence), together with many bracts, on an edible base. Once the buds bloom, the structure changes to a coarse, barely edible form. Another variety of the same species is the cardoon, a perennial plant native to the Mediterranean region.

    Recipe Scallops with Jerusalem Artichoke Veloutée and Coffee, Black Cardamom and Walnut Crumb

    It might sound strange to use coffee in savoury recipes but its not as uncommon as you might think. There are plenty of recipes using coffee as a rub for meat for example and coffee added to molés too. Perhaps not so many recipes pair seafood with coffee, but I thought why not? I served this to...

    This recipe uses tinned artichoke hearts which, when cut in half, miraculously just fit into a 23cm tart tin! I wanted to create layers of contrasting flavour rather than mixing all the ingredients together. So - a layer of spinach, a layer of blue cheese, a layer of caramelised artichoke...

    Recipe Artichoke, Broad Bean and Caperberry Salad

    Artichokes have a unique taste which almost defies description. They are a bit like asparagus, a little like hearts of palm (which if you have never tried, then you should!) and they remind me of salsify too.
