Fresh artichokes of the Camus de Bretagne variety from the Brittany coast. This variety produces large, round buds. However, the size of the artichoke depends on the weather conditions and can therefore vary from year to year.
7.8 kilos is equal to 12-23 artichokes.
- Remove the stem and cut off the top third of the artichoke. Rub with a slice of lemon and then boil or steam for around 30 minutes until the leaves can be easily pulled off. Cooking time may vary depending on the size of the artichoke.
- Use the artichokes to make a casserole. Artichoke hearts can also be used to make spreads and dips.
Artichokes are best eaten fresh. Wrapped in a damp cloth, the artichokes will keep for up to five days in the refrigerator. Before freezing, remove the hard leaves and the choke, then blanch for 4 to 8 minutes.
