ARTICHOKE 101 | how to cook and eat artichokes

[@nickystripe3303]

I am almost totally blind and I want to thank you for several things. First of all, thank you so much for the wonderful description you have about how to fix artichokes. I have been buying the frozen artichoke quarters and they are very good, but I have always wanted to know how to steam artichokes. No one ever told me how to fix an artichoke from scratch and what the choke was. Every recipe says to remove the choke, but I’ve never known what it was. Thank you for not doing what so many KZbin food video producers do and just provide music and pictures without speaking. They don’t seem to realize that a person doesn’t have to see to be able to cook. I have subscribed to your channel for that reason and also because I’m interested in seeing more recipes from you. Thank you so much.

[@glemmari]

I hope you have made many delicious artichokes after seeing this! I agree that this is great advise how to prepare them. I haven't even touched an artichoke, so good instruction is needed even though i can see. Have fun cooking!

[@thalanoth]

did you ever make any yourself or just brown eyed?

[@lifejourney3086]

❤ I agree. It's like" Cooking Artichokes for Dumbies"😅

[@gillianmuspic2337]

you are the first and only person that I have seen talk about artichokes and not tell us to cut off the stem and throw it away. Yes yes yes cook it as it is delicious

[@CleanandDeliciousDani]

Interesting! I was raised eating the stems :)

[@Sapereaudex]

I find that really hard to believe. I’ve looked at dozens of these recipes trying to find the exact way my mom made artichokes. Every single one mentions cooking and eating the stem. I’ve actually never heard anyone mention discarding the stem until your comment..

[@milicamarshastefanovich3312]

I’ve always wanted to know how to cook them!! Thank you for not only showing us but educating us as well on how to purchase them. You’re the best Dani!!

[@CleanandDeliciousDani]

It's my pleasure. Thank you for watching!

[@leftertiberiuvlad]

Great video content! Excuse me for chiming in, I would appreciate your initial thoughts. Have you heard about - Yenabriel Deadlift Smasher (Sure I saw it on Google)? It is a smashing exclusive guide for discovering a secret to skyrocketed your deadlift without the normal expense. Ive heard some incredible things about it and my good mate called Gray at very last got cool success with it.

Nice Video...Self proclaimed Chef Michael here. I have been eating artichokes for over 40 years. I have come across some delicious ways to prepare them. Instead of boiling the artichoke, I steam it with chicken broth in a pressure cooker for 16-18 minutes (start the timer after the 1st steam release that indicates you have the pot pressurized, approximately 2-4 minutes after stove is lit, 16 mins for small to medium 18 for large size artichokes) For dips, my favorite 4 are of my own design, (1)a butter dip: butter, molly McButter flakes, onion powder, onion, and salt. in pan add the onion, melt butter, and rest of ingredients mixed in (2) Lemon Curry: Mayo, Jamaican curry powder, salt, onion powder, 1/2 a juiced lemon, lemon zest (3) White Grape Balsamic: Reduce 1 cup of White Balsamic vinegar with rosemary and thyme for 20 minutes, let cool, and salt & pepper to taste preference and last (4) Mustard dip: Equal parts Honey, Dijon, Brown mustard, Grain Mustard seed in white wine, and Chinese Hot Mustard (store made not in packets)

[@_____758]

half of these views are mine. Everytime I have to make an artichoke I have to rewatch this video like 5 times lol.

[@maragaitan-strane3215]

I watched it 5 times alredy too

[@ka-boom2083]

Haha

[@allesuye2551]

Just had my first artichoke and it’s so yummy. Thanks for detailed explanation of how to select, store and cook them. Unfortunately I did not look up on how to deal with them after purchasing, and I did not store them properly so the whole thing turned brown... but was still yummy nonetheless.The ‘heart’ was still plump and flavourful after cooking.

[@mariar1322]

Lol I do the same with so many recipes

[@Kilomanjaro11]

Thank you for removing the fear I had in preparing artichokes. I have enjoyed them at other folks homes but never had the courage to try to prepare at home. Well done indeed. Again, much appreciated.

I love Artichoke like this, I usually just stem them whole and avoid the sharp ends. Which come to find out - most people don’t know how to eat them like this. Thank you for doing this!

[@CleanandDeliciousDani]

I love them like this too! They are really just SO delicious!

[@nla5307]

I just bought my very first artichoke yesterday ( I am on a venture of trying and cooking new foods). So happy I came across this video! I will be cooking mine tonight and I had no idea the middle is inedible LOL. Thank you so much for this video, you are very much appreciated!

[@californiapattycakes4417]

Yum!! Just bought some & had to look for a way to cook it besides frying it. ❤❤

[@janetantoine9268]

Love it!! We added a little bit of cumin in the boiling water. We dip the edible part of the stem in a tahini sauce made with water, fresh squeezed garlic, lime and salt. Yummy!! Learned a lot on handling it today. Thank you.

[@CleanandDeliciousDani]

What a great idea. Thanks for sharing.

[@arigaissaian957]

This video was perfect! Learned everything I needed on how to cook artichoke at home without all the fancy cooking equipment :) thank you!

Well done, comprehensive. I’ve been eating artichoke all my life yet, your post has taught me volumes, many thanks.

[@shartre]

(First timer of the artichoke. Read of all its goodness. But hesitant to try...here I go) I bought. Cooked. Let it sit. A day has gone. Stumbled upon this video. Watched. Ahhh I’m not intimidated anymore. Ready to give this artichoke a try. All because of you...thanks!

[@thatoneguy429]

I like how she made this video. Usually I get a little restless when watching a video but she was very knowledgeable and nice. Kept me watch all the way through.

[@tortoro6565]

I just bought 2 artichokes for the first time. Prior to watching this video, I have no idea how to cook them. I learned that artichoke is a great food for our guts. Thank you for showing and educating us about artichoke

[@laram.walker8748]

My mum stuffs a mixture of bread, olives, parsley soaked in white vinegar (can't remember if there is anything else) in between the leaves where possible and steams them like this. Delicious! that bit of vinegar really makes a difference.

[@Frozengeckolover]

Perfect video! Thank you! I've eaten canned artichoke hearts, but have never prepared a fresh one. I got some on clearance today, and had to Google how to prepare them. I love how you present the whole process, from start to finish, explaining the 'why' and 'how' of it. Very helpful. Thanks.

[@kullprit5610]

Eager? This was a terrific vid. My salivary glands are running on overtime! Thks for posting.

[@leahmencer5463]

I love that you went into as much as detail as to describe *how* to eat the leaf and what it looks like when you've properly eaten it. I literally had no idea what the inside of an artichoke looked like let alone which parts I was supposed to eat.

[@erinsegura7032]

This is probably my second review on a KZbin video in the 20+ years I’ve had my KZbin account, and I have to say that this video is all-around the best 101 video I’ve watched. From your attention-grabbing delivery to the step-by-step process and examples of before and after as well as examples of how you can use an artichoke in dishes, thank you for your time on this. Loved the bloopers, too. Nicely done. I am happily subscribed and hopeful that the rest of your videos are just as informative and entertaining.

Thanks. Just picked 2 artichokes from the garden, planted because the plants are beautiful, really graceful, and I have baby plants from letting them seed 2 years ago.

This is one of my favorite veggies. I love this video because it’s great for those who are new to the incredible joy of artichokes and educational for those who didn’t know how to cook nor eat them. When I first begin to eat them I didn’t know you only pulled the inners out of the leaves, so after the first experience I did not eat them for a bit. Your video shows newbies everything.👏🏽😷❤️

My mom use to make all the time. While its being cooked she made each of us a dish of melted, lemon & garlic so when done we dipped it in it. At times w had spaghetti with butter and cheese. WOW my mouth is watering thinking about it. 😋

[@jesalopez660]

There used to be a show on lifetime like at home with Katie brown. One episode was a meal with artichokes and I wanted to make it for Easter dinner. I ended up serving the whole artichokes and I had cut out all the hearts with the choke part lol. My mom asked her husband how to eat it and he whispered "you don't." LOL. I live artichokes and just by the cans ever since that fiasco. I love them in a pasta dish with chicken, spinach, capers, lots of lemon, butter, and a little alfredo sauce. I top that with parmesan cheese. I've been eating this dish for 6 or 7 weeks lol. It's all I want to eat and mixed berry pie. I guess it checks all the marks my body needs bc I never get tired of it. I think I've gained some weight from this diet though so I may need to cut out the noodles.
