Most people have to develop a taste for the artichoke. Our family grew up on them. As toddlers, we were taught the art of eating artichokes, scraping one leaf at a time with our teeth , until we reached the heart which was the biggest treat of all. When we married and had families of our own, we passed the tradition down to our children.

I love this recipe because it's easy to prepare, delicious and it doesn't have to simmer for hours.
