Steamed Artichokes with Two Dipping Sauces image

Categories     Sauce     Steam     Artichoke     Boil

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 ARTICHOKES WITH MAYONNAISE-MUSTARD SAUCE



Steamed Artichokes With Mayonnaise-Mustard Sauce image

Flavored steaming water adds succulence to these. The dipping sauce is a little different from plain mayonnaise or melted butter (although those are very good, too). Fresh artichokes should have tightly closed heads and not be withered-looking. To make a nice presentation, cut an inch off the top of the artichokes with a sharp knife, and snip the thorny tips from the leaves with kitchen shears. Cut the stems off flush with the bottom of the artichokes, then cut off the dark, dried-out ends of the stems. Steam the green sections of the stems right along with the artichokes. Sometimes the stems taste good and sometimes they don't, but you won't know unless you cook them. Try a bite of the stems when they are tender. If they taste good but are fibrous, peel them with a sharp knife. If they are good, you have bonus bites of tasty artichoke. If they taste bitter, just add them to the compost pile. A teaspoon is the perfect tool to scrape off the fuzzy center after eating the tender parts of the leaves. Please remove the fuzzy choke with care. As my father used to say, "That's the part that choked Arty." Then you can eat the artichoke bottom. That is your reward for all the work you did to pull off, dip and nibble the leaves one at a time. I have cooked them this way for a long time and am not sure where the idea came from, but it was probably Julia Child. The sauce is from my DBF. His brother made it when they were boys at home. It's good on broccoli, too.

Time 40m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 artichokes, washed and trimmed as above
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
1 teaspoon kosher salt
10 peppercorns
water, for steaming
real mayonnaise
yellow mustard

Steps:

  • Place one to two inches of water into a large pot with a tight-fitting lid and add the olive oil, red wine vinegar, salt, and whole peppercorns to the water.
  • Insert the steaming basket and place artichokes and trimmed stems inside the basket. If you don't have a steamer, it also works to place the artichokes directly into the water, bottoms down.
  • With lid off, heat until water boils, then put lid on and turn heat down to low to maintain a simmer.
  • Steam or simmer for 25-30 minutes or until a sharp knife can easily pierce bottoms of the artichokes near the stems. To be sure, test them all. Larger artichokes will take longer to cook. Remove hot artichokes from the pot with tongs.
  • To make the sauce: Mix about one part of yellow mustard into six parts of good mayonnaise. The sauce should be light yellow and not taste like either mayonnaise or mustard, but like a new sauce all its own. Add more of either ingredient as needed to get the "new" sauce.

STEAMED ARTICHOKES WITH VINAIGRETTE DIPPING SAUCE



Steamed Artichokes With Vinaigrette Dipping Sauce image

Artichokes are not the friendliest of vegetables. They are a good source of magnesium, potassium and fiber, and they require a little work, but it's time well-spent. The simplest way to prepare an artichoke is to steam it, there's hardly any trimming at all. Serve it with a dipping sauce and work your way, perhaps with a friend or loved one, to the heart. Then scrape away the chokes and divvy up the prize at the middle.

Provided by Martha Rose Shulman

Categories     weekday, side dish

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 large or 4 medium artichokes
1 lemon, cut in half
2 tablespoons white wine vinegar or sherry vinegar
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 small garlic clove, minced or pureed
2 tablespoon Best Foods or Hellmann's mayonnaise
2 tablespoons plain low-fat yogurt
1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
Freshly ground pepper to taste
Sea salt or kosher salt to taste

Steps:

  • Lay an artichoke on its side on a cutting board. Using a large, sharp knife, cut away the entire top quarter in one slice. Rub the top with the cut lemon. Cut off the stem at the bottom, so the artichoke will stand upright, and rub the bottom with lemon. Pull off the tough bottom leaves (bracts). Then, using scissors, cut away the thorny end of each remaining bract. Rub the edges with lemon.
  • Bring two inches of water to a boil in a steamer or pasta pot, and place the artichokes in the steaming basket. If they are too big to fit, place them directly in the water. Reduce the heat, cover and simmer 45 minutes or until a leaf easily pulls away. Remove from the heat. Serve hot or at room temperature with a sauce for dipping the leaves. Use your teeth to scrape the flesh from the bottom of the leaf. Have a bowl or plate on the side for the discarded leaves. When you reach the papery leaves that cover the heart in the middle, cut them away along with the choke and discard. Divvy up the heart and enjoy.
  • Whisk together the vinegar, salt, Dijon mustard and garlic. Whisk in the mayonnaise, yogurt and olive oil, and blend well. Taste, adjust salt, and add pepper. Use as a dip for artichokes or other vegetables.

STEAMED ARTICHOKES WITH GARLICKY DIPPING SAUCE



Steamed Artichokes With Garlicky Dipping Sauce image

I grew up eating artichokes dipped in a garlic butter, which is delicious, but i wanted something i wouldn't feel so guilty about eating. So, i came up with this recipe as a test, and it was really good. I use non-fat Greek yogurt, it is a little thicker, but you could use regular non-fat/low-fat yogurt, or even sour cream. I make things for 2, so if you want more, just make twice as much dipping sauce.

Provided by Mama Sass

Categories     Vegetable

Time 1h

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 artichokes
1/2 bay leaf
1 large garlic clove, peeled and smashed
water, for steaming (or chicken or veggie broth)
2 garlic cloves, finely minced
1 tablespoon margarine
1/2-1 teaspoon lemon juice (start small & add more if you want)
1/2 teaspoon dried dill
1/2 cup nonfat yogurt
salt & pepper
1 pinch cayenne pepper (optional-for heat lovers)
1/2-1 tablespoon milk (optional)

Steps:

  • Trim bottom stalk of artichokes, leaving about 1 inch. Cut off the first couple of inches of the top of the artichoke. If your artichoke is dangerously spikey, or you are serving these to kids/company, you may want to trim the tips of all the remaining leaves with scissors. Rinse the artichokes well, under running water.
  • Put about 2 inches of water in the bottom of a big pot, and place the artichokes top down. Throw in the bay leaf and crushed garlic clove. Cover and bring to a boil, then lower heat so the liquid is just simmering. Steam like this for about 30-45 minutes.
  • Make the dip by putting the minced garlic, margarine, and lemon juice in a microwave safe bowl and heating for 30 seconds. Add the dill, yogurt, and salt & pepper. If you want your sauce thick like this, then you are done. I like my dip a little runnier, so i add a little milk until it is the consistancy that i want. Either way, cover and put in the fridge until the artichokes are ready.
  • Let artichokes cool off for about 10 minutes before serving.

STEAMED ARTICHOKES WITH CURRY DIPPING SAUCE



Steamed Artichokes With Curry Dipping Sauce image

A mayonnaise sauce with a little different twist. I was surprised and pleased to find that the typical seasonings in curries work so well with artichokes. Hope you enjoy this. (Low fat mayo works fine in this recipe, but bottled lemon juice doe not - use fresh squeezed) Note: the sauce is highly seasoned. If you wish a milder sauce, reduce all spices to half.
