    The finish

    OK here we go! A ready to eat artichoke...



    What ya do is grasp the leaves and pull them off. Insert fleshy lower lobe of leaf (covered with delicious stuffing too!) into mouth, gently close choppers on it, and pull leaf out- scraping flesh and stuffing into mouth. Savor. Repeat. Many times.

    Here she is about half way done. Leaves get a bit more tender as you progress to the heart...



    Finally! when it looks like this, you are ready to go after the heart.



    Grasp the top of the remaining leaves and insert a butter knife...or fork handle, or whatever... just below the base of the leaves...



    Continue cutting around the base- you will see the fine "choke" hairs inside...your job is to remove them removing as little of the delicious heart as possible.



    Here's the job almost done...



    And the prize! Add a touch extra salt and savor the goodness and hearty flavor of your hard-won prize!

    In God I trust- All others pay cash...

      About 25 to 30 min when they reach pressure -
      I realize the stuffing has that dipping sauce but it will dry out a bit and like Paula Dean says- everything is better with Butter!!

          Great thread, Rich! It looks very good. And, I think I'm not as afraid of artichokes now as I used to be.

                            I dunno- never could stand them. Or yellows. Blech! Even the smell revolts me. Must be a head thing?

                              Great tut on the chokes. Big fare around here both kids love em, they are pricey out here tho.. and no one in this house will share one.. they were $4.99 each the other day.. so we had to pass.. and bought harcort verts instead.. I have had them our grilled, Rich have you had them that way? I cannot figure out how to get em all grilled up.. we even tried on the 4th of July, couldnt get it.. boiled then split in half vertically, but they just did not come out. I will definately try this tho the next time they are on sale.
                              Thanks for the post.
