FAQs
1. Do I need to remove the choke before stuffing?
If the choke is visible (in mature artichokes), scoop it out with a spoon. For younger artichokes, it softens during cooking.
2. Can I use canned or frozen artichokes?
No — this recipe works only with whole fresh artichokes.
3. What can I serve them with?
They pair beautifully with pasta, grilled vegetables, or crusty bread.
