Time 1h15m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 whole artichokes
Juice of 1 medium lemon
Salt
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
4 teaspoons agave nectar
2 tablespoons finely chopped shallot
2 teaspoons thyme leaves
Salt and pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Fill 5-quart saucepan two-thirds full with water. Heat to boiling.
  • Use knife to trim thick stem at bottoms of each artichoke. Using scissors, snip off tips of leaves. Cut and discard 1 1/2 inches off top of each artichoke. Rinse artichokes thoroughly with cold running water, and transfer them to pan of boiling water. Add juice of 1 lemon and salt to taste. Cover; cook over medium-low heat about 45 minutes or until bottoms of artichokes are tender.
  • Meanwhile, in small bowl, beat dipping sauce ingredients with whisk until emulsified. Pour into dipping bowl, and set aside.
  • Gently remove cooked artichokes from hot water and place upside down on cooling rack to drain 5 minutes. Turn right side up, and gently pull open tops of artichokes until you see pale yellow leaves, and pull those out to reveal the hairy choke. Use a spoon to scoop out the choke. Use your hands to gently close up the artichokes.
  • To eat, pull off leaves starting at base, dip in sauce and bite off soft part found at base of each leaf. Discard remaining part of leaf. Once all leaves are gone, you will find the artichoke heart. Eat that part with the help of a fork and knife, dipping it in sauce.
