BAKED ARTICHOKES WITH CRAB AND SOURDOUGH STUFFING
Artichokes, an Old World food, came to America with Italian immigrants and found a happy home in the near-Mediterranean climate of California. As "ethnic" fare, artichokes took their time catching on outside the Golden State. They finally did in the thirties and became something of a fad. Artichokes were not limited to the vegetable course, either. Sometimes the center "choke" was scooped out and the hollow filled with a stuffing for a fashionable light lunch entrée.

Steps:
- Melt butter in heavy medium skillet over medium heat. Add bell pepper, onion, celery and garlic. Sauté until onion is translucent, about 6 minutes. Transfer to large bowl and cool completely. Mix in breadcrumbs and crabmeat. Season stuffing with salt and pepper. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate.)
- Preheat oven to 375°F. Cut off top third of each artichoke; discard. Cut off stem. Pull out yellow and small purple-tipped leaves from center. Using melon baller, scoop out fibrous choke.
- Gently pull leaves outward from center until leaves open slightly. Pack stuffing into each artichoke cavity and between first and second center layers of leaves, mounding slightly. Place artichokes in 13x9x2-inch baking dish. Add enough water to come 3/4 inch up sides of dish. Cover with foil. Bake artichokes until outer leaf pulls away easily, about 1 hour 15 minutes.
THE BEST STUFFED ARTICHOKES
Stuffed artichokes were the "something special" on the table at all of my holiday gatherings and special occasions growing up. My grandmother would make them, and now the tradition has been passed on to the rest of the family. We would "fight" over the artichoke heart at the end. The filling is like a very moist dressing/stuffing you would have at Thanksgiving, but amped up with lots of garlic and cheese. The bottom of the artichoke leaves are tender and meaty with a subtle earthy, artichoke flavor. I like to dip the heart in a lemony mayo or butter at the end. Serve as a family-style appetizer or as part of a meal alongside a salad and grilled chicken.

Steps:
- Cut top 1/4 of an artichoke off and discard. Trim off the top 1/2 inch from remaining leaves. Cut off bottom inch from stalk to create a flat bottom. Turn artichoke upside down and bang on surface to loosen the leaves. Zest 3/4 teaspoon of lemon zest from the lemon and set aside. Cut lemon in half and rub cut leaves and stem of artichoke with lemon. Repeat artichoke prep with remaining artichokes.
- Combine reserved lemon zest with bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, parsley, garlic, 2 teaspoons salt, and pepper in a medium bowl and stir well.
- Sprinkle bread crumb mixture evenly into all the artichoke leaves, avoiding the thistle leaves in the direct center. Work mixture evenly into each crevice of each artichoke until all of the mixture is used.
- Pour water in the bottom of a Dutch oven. Add remaining 2 teaspoons salt. Set artichokes in the pot so that they are touching, so that they may remain upright during cooking. Bring to a boil and reduce to a simmer. Cover and cook until the leaves release very easily, about 1 hour.
- Let stand for 10 to 15 minutes before serving. Sprinkle with more parsley if desired. Serve warm or room temperature.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Prick holes in the potatoes with a fork and place directly on the oven rack. Roast until cooked through, about 45 minutes, depending on the size of the potato.
- While the potatoes are cooking prepare the crab: Add 2 tablespoons of butter to a frying pan. Add the shallots and cook until translucent. Next add the minced garlic and saute in the frying pan to gently brown the shallots and garlic. Add the thyme and crab and cook until heated through. Then set aside.
- Lower the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Once the potatoes are cooked and cool enough to handle cut, off a small portion of the top making an opening in the potato.
- Take a spoon and scoop the pulp into a bowl. Place the potato skins on a cookie sheet and put in a 350 degree F oven for about 5 minutes to dry them out and ensure they will be crispy when done.
- To the potato pulp, add the shallot/crab mixture, remaining butter, cheese and sour cream and mix. Then add parsley, salt and pepper, to taste. Fill the potato shells with the potato/crab mixture. Bake until cheese has melted around 35 to 45 minutes.
- Sprinkle with parsley.
CRAB CAKE-STUFFED ARTICHOKES
We took the classic stuffed artichoke and gave it a boost with all the fun flavors of a crab cake, classic seafood seasoning included. Most stuffed artichoke recipes go through the same trimming process but keep the artichokes whole, leaving the inedible "choke" intact. We opted to cut the artichoke in half lengthwise, so that the choke can be easily removed with a melon baller, then stuffed and tied the artichoke back together with kitchen twine, insuring all the delicious filling stays inside.

Steps:
- Mix the crab meat, garlic, breadcrumbs, cheese, parsley, seasoning blend, lemon zest, 1 teaspoon salt and few good grinds pepper in a medium bowl until combined. Pour in the olive oil and toss until the mixture is evenly coated and the texture of wet sand. Set aside.
- Fill a large bowl with cold water, squeeze in the juice of 1 of the lemon halves and then drop in both lemon halves. Working with 1 artichoke at a time, trim about 1 inch off the top with a serrated knife, then snap off the tough outer leaves around the stem (about 2 layers of leaves). Use kitchen shears to trim 1/4 to 1/2 inch off the thorny leaf tips. Cut off the stem completely so the artichoke can sit flat and upright. Cut the artichoke in half lengthwise through the stem using a chef's knife, then use a melon baller to remove the choke (the fuzzy "hair" in the very center of the artichoke). Rub the cut parts with a lemon half (from the bowl), then keep the artichoke in the lemon water while you trim the rest.
- Use your fingers to spread the leaves of each artichoke half, then stuff the crumb mixture between each. Fill the very center of each artichoke half with some of the breadcrumb mixture as well. Use kitchen twine to tie the artichoke halves back together, making sure to prevent the breadcrumbs from falling out.
- Set up a steamer basket over a large pot of simmering water, then add the stuffed artichokes upright (don't worry if they're snug). Cover with a lid and steam over medium-low heat, adding more water as needed, until the bottom of the artichoke is tender when pierced with the tip of a paring knife, about 1 hour 15 minutes.
- Within the last 5 minutes of cooking, preheat the oven to broil.
- Transfer the stuffed artichokes from the steamer basket to a rimmed baking sheet and remove the kitchen twine. Place the artichoke halves cut-side up. Watching carefully, broil until the breadcrumbs turn crisp and golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer to a platter and serve with an extra dusting of seasoning blend and the lemon wedges.
