Artichokes

I have not had artichokes much. There are many recipes for asparagus, artichokes in Mediterranean vegetables. This book is a James Beard winner.

Cuisine foundations book had a step by step picture of cutting an artichoke in three pages. But that was two variations. Still it is a one and a half page for one kind of it. I am glad I bought only one artichoke. I started peeling it and I almost got to the centre of it and found it heartless. Disappointed, I made a curry out of it. It is above average. Just some part of it has the lemongrass texture. The tender ones agree more with my taste buds. I need to learn to pick chokes with hearts.

Jerusalem Artichoke.
