Description

This recipe for artichokes in French style is a true classic and simply tastes delicious! The fresh artichokes are cooked until tender and served with a fine vinaigrette. I love to pluck the leaves individually and dip them in the vinaigrette - a delight! The preparation takes a little time, but it's definitely worth it. Perfect as an appetizer or light main course in the spring. The vinaigrette can also be prepared well in advance.

Ingredients (7 ingredients)

4 piece Artichokes (fresh)
1 piece Lemon
1 piece Shallot
1 tsp Dijon mustard
2 tbsp White wine vinegar
6 tbsp Olive oil
1 tsp Honey

Preparation (8 steps)

Prepare artichokes

Remove the outer, hard leaves from the artichokes. Cut off the tips of the artichoke leaves with scissors by about 2 cm. Shorten the stem and peel the stem ends if they are fibrous.

Rub artichokes

Halve the lemon and rub the artichokes with it so that they do not turn brown. Squeeze out the lemon and set the juice aside.

Serve

To serve, arrange the artichokes on a plate and serve the vinaigrette in small bowls. Then you pull off the individual leaves of the artichokes, dip them in the vinaigrette and pull the tender flesh on the underside of the leaf with your teeth. Once all the leaves have been removed, you can enjoy the artichoke heart and base after removing the fine hairs inside.
