Yield serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 21

STEAMED ARTICHOKES
1 lemon
4 globe artichokes (12 ounces each)
TARRAGON-YOGURT SAUCE
3/4 cup plain Greek-style yogurt (2 percent)
1 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest, and 1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon finely minced fresh tarragon
1 tablespoon finely minced fresh flat-leaf parsley
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
(makes 1 cup)
SPICY AÏOLI
2 garlic cloves
1 large egg yolk
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
3/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon sweet paprika
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon hot sauce, such as Tabasco
Coarse salt and freshly ground black pepper
(makes 1 cup)

Steps:

  • STEAMED ARTICHOKES
  • Prepare a bowl of water large enough to hold all of the artichokes. Peel 1 lemon with a vegetable peeler, then cut in half and squeeze the juice into the bowl.
  • Remove any tough outer leaves from artichokes. Working with one artichoke at a time, use a serrated knife to cut off the top quarter of each. Use kitchen shears to trim sharp tips of the leaves. Remove any small leaves from bottom and trim stem just enough that artichoke can stand upright; place in lemon water to keep it from turning brown while repeating with remaining artichokes.
  • Fill a large pot with 2 inches of water; set a steamer basket (or colander) inside pot, and bring water to a boil. Place the lemon peel and artichokes, stem ends down, in basket. Cover and steam until bases of artichokes are easily pierced with the tip of a sharp knife, about 20 minutes.
  • When cool enough to handle, use a small spoon to scoop out center cone; scrape out purple leaves and fuzzy choke. Serve artichokes with dipping sauces, as desired
  • TARRAGON-YOGURT SAUCE
  • Mix together yogurt, lemon zest and juice, tarragon, parsley, and 1 teaspoon salt; season with pepper.
  • SPICY AÏOLI
  • Bring 1 inch of water to a boil in a small saucepan. Blanch garlic until tender, 3 to 5 minutes; drain and mash garlic into a paste.
  • Whisk together garlic, egg yolk, mustard, and lemon juice in a bowl. Slowly whisk in oil until emulsified. Whisk in paprika, cayenne, hot sauce, and 1 teaspoon salt; season with pepper.

STEAMED WHOLE ARTICHOKES WITH SPICY LEMON CAPER MAYONNAISE



Steamed Whole Artichokes with Spicy Lemon Caper Mayonnaise image

This is a dish that takes you straight to a French bistro. I love it because we cook the artichokes whole and eat the whole thing! While the recipe calls for a steaming method, you can easily submerge them in a large pot of boiling, lightly salted water and cook until tender. When I was living in Paris, a glass of cheap, dry white wine with a few ice cubes and this artichoke with the spicy dipping sauce made for a classic bistro appetizer moment. Pull off the leaves, dunk in the sauce and enjoy. Scoop the fuzzy "hay" off the top of the artichoke to find the heart in the center-the best part! Don't like spicy? Simply make the sauce without the hot sauce or pepper flakes.

Time 50m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 large artichokes
6 tablespoons mayonnaise
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons capers, coarsely chopped
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1 tablespoon plus 2 teaspoons hot sauce
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives

Steps:

  • Place each artichoke on its side on a flat surface. Use a serrated knife to saw off the stem at the base of the artichoke so it can sit upright on a plate without falling over once cooked.
  • In a large pot, add 3 inches of water. Insert a steamer basket. Place the artichokes top-down in the basket, wedged in a single layer. Cover. Bring the water to a boil over high heat and cook until tender when pierced with the tip of a knife, 30 to 35 minutes. If the pot runs out of water while cooking, simply add more to the bottom.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, oil, capers, mustard, vinegar, hot sauce and red pepper flakes. Taste and adjust the seasoning. Garnish with the chives.
  • Serve the artichokes with the dipping sauce.
