RAW ARTICHOKE SALAD
In Italy, a favorite way to serve fresh small artichokes is raw, dressed with oil and lemon. It couldn't be a simpler presentation, and it's sensational. Slice the trimmed artichokes as thinly as possible, then season and toss with fruity extra-virgin olive oil and lemon juice. Serve over arugula and add curls of Parmesan.

Steps:
- Whisk oil and juice in a medium bowl. Season dressing with salt and pepper. Working with 1 artichoke at a time, break off outer leaves until only pale-green ones remain.

Season with salt and pepper. Transfer to a platter and top with cheese.
RAW ARTICHOKE AND PARMIGIANO SALAD
Steps:
- Set up a bowl of acidulated water: break the vitamin C capsules into a large bowl of water and squeeze in the juice from 2 of the lemons. Toss in the 4 halves of the squeezed lemon as well. Artichokes will turn brown (oxidize) before your eyes so you must, must, must set up this bowl of acidulated water first!
- Working with 1 artichoke at a time, peel off the tough green outer leaves to reveal the spring green color underneath. Trim off the tough outer layer of the stem and any brown spots. Cut the tip of the choke off. Artichokes have a lot of waste, accept it and move on. Very carefully, using a mandoline, very thin shave the artichokes and put them immediately into the lemon water. The artichokes are best when done at least a couple of hours ahead because they tenderize a little.
- To assemble the salad:
- Put the artichokes in a salad spinner to remove they excess water. Put the artichokes, arugula and Parmigiano-Reggiano in a large serving bowl. Dress with the juice of the remaining lemon, finishing oil and salt, to taste. The salad should be well-dressed and full flavored but not soggy.
- Serve immediately.
- It's spring on a plate!

Steps:
- Choose only the smallest, most tender, of the young and green fresh artichokes. Once they have developed their purple choke inside they are no longer desirable for this raw salad.
- Wash the artichokes carefully. Trim the pointy ends of the leaves, cut off the top 1/4-inch and tear off and discard and blemished outer leaves.
- Slice the artichokes, paper thin, lengthwise and place in a bowl with 1 tablespoon lemon juice and 2 tablespoons olive oil. Toss to combine well. Marinate the artichoke for no more than several minutes or they may blacken.
- Toss the salad greens with the basil and parsley leaves. Whisk the remaining lemon juice and olive oil together and dress the salad greens with this vinaigrette. Toss together.
- Place some salad evenly divided on several plates and divide the sliced artichokes among the plates by topping each dish with some marinated artichokes.
- Shave fresh Parmesan cheese on each dish to finish.
FAVA BEAN AND RAW ARTICHOKE SALAD

Steps:
- Combine the artichokes, fava beans, scallions or spring onions, olives, and dill in serving bowl.
- Whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, salt and pepper and toss well with the salad. Serve immediately.
- Note: To prepare artichokes the Greek way, cut away most of the stem, leaving about 1 inch of it intact. Have 1 or 2 cut lemons handy as you work with the artichokes, rubbing them on cut surfaces to prevent discoloration. Also have a bowl of acidulated water on hand. Snap off the tough outer leaves near the base. Hold the artichoke on its side on a cutting board and, using a sharp serrated knife, cut the artichoke crowns down to within 1 1/2 inches of the base. With a paring knife, trim the tough green exterior off the stem. Rub the artichoke with lemon. Using a teaspoon, thoroughly scrape away the hairy choke on the inside. Holding the artichoke on its side again, trim away any leaf stubs by going around the artichoke almost on a bias with the knife. Using a paring knife, trim the stem so that only its inner, tender core remains. Rub the artichoke with lemon and drop into acidulated water. Continue until all the artichokes are clean.
