This is the basic set of products. Besides artichokes we need soy sauce from TM "Kikkoman", oil /I have pine nuts and a mixture of peppers.
To start the artichokes you need to clean, i.e. remove the outer hard leaves and 1/3 cut top. Slice immediately brush with lemon juice, otherwise it will darken. The stems from the artichokes are edible too, but for this recipe we don't need them.
The prepared artichokes push the petals and wash thoroughly /in can be dirt and even insects/. Fill each artichoke, trying to get evenly 1 tbsp vegetable oil and soy sauce from TM "Kikkoman", poperchit, sprinkle with lemon juice, you can additionally lightly salt.
The artichokes can stand upright on a baking sheet and bake in the oven at t 160 degrees.
I have artichokes bake about 1 hour. The criterion of readiness are freely pull out the petals.
Traditionally, the artichoke is eaten cold, edible they the bottom, the white part of the petal. Its dipped in sauce and pulled between the teeth. The remaining hard part is discarded.
The sauce can be anything, for example the Dutch. Because today, I have a meatless dish, I simply mixed peanut butter with soy sauce TM "Kikkoman" and dipped the petals in there.
That brings us to the most delicious part of the artichoke! What You see in the middle, the so called "hay" is not edible, it is necessary to remove a small spoon.
But the remaining fleshy Cup boldly dip into the sauce and get incomparable pleasure! It is not for nothing called the Royal artichokes a delicacy! To break away from eating an artichoke is simply not possible, for me it is like seeds, when the hand she reaches for a new portion!
If you believe the Internet, the artichoke grows only in Antarctica! If You are in the shops did not sell, maybe try to grow your own!? Because this plant is unique for its beneficial properties and taste! Bon appetit!
