Artichokes Recipes

He globe artichoke (cynara cardunculus var. Scolymus) is a variety of a species of thistle cultivated as a food.



The edible portion of the plant consists of the flower buds before the flowers come into bloom. The budding artichoke flower-head is a cluster of many budding small flowers (an inflorescence), together with many bracts, on an edible base. Once the buds bloom, the structure changes to a coarse, barely edible form. Another variety of the same species is the cardoon, a perennial plant native to the mediterranean region. Both wild forms and cultivated varieties (cultivars) exist.



In italy, artichoke hearts in oil are the usual vegetable for "spring" section of the "four seasons" pizza (with olives for summer, mushrooms for autumn, and prosciutto for winter).
