Directions: |
Directions:Stand artichokes in pot just wide enough to hold them upright. Add water to depth of ¾ inch around the artichokes. Drizzle each artichoke with 3 tablespoons of regular olive oil. Cover pot and place it over medium heat. When water comes to a simmer, reduce the heat to low. Cook about 60 minutes (depending on size of artichokes) or until artichoke bottoms are tender when pierced with a knife and leaf pulls out easily. Add additional warm water if needed to prevent scorching. Serve warm or at room temperature. |
