Stuffed Artichokes Recipe - Laura Vitale - Laura in the Kitchen Episode 897

[@janepowers6711]

Thank you so much! This is just the way my mother made them & I have been searching for this exact recipe for years! I could cry, I’m so happy to have found this recipe.

[@Xezbethnovitch]

Laura, I have to say that your camera guy is doing an amazing job! Always showing what i want to see when i want to see it! Love your videos and thank you so much for doing such incredible work!

[@br-ian]

Laura I have been a fan now for over a year and I have to tell you I appreciate your videos. You are really easy to relate to and you make cooking so enjoyable. It's also nice to see you love what you do and it's genuine. Also I find it so cute when you start salivating when prepping your dishes. Guess what, so are we. Anyways, continued success and I'll be a fan as long as I love to eat which will be forever.

[@Barbarra63297]

Thanks for posting this! Many, many years ago a good friend's mom made these and I loved them but never knew exactly how she made them. They too were from Italy and sadly her mom is no longer with us and my friend didn't know how to make them either (mom did all the cooking). This recipe, I believe, is exactly how she made hers. Can't wait to make these!!!!

[@reesey.m.m]

I love ALL your recipes Laura!! My dad is from Bari and I loved growing up watching him cook and filling the house with the smell of Italy :) I just love how you share your passion with us and I can really tell how much you love your Nonna and memories of cooking with her!! Thank you for your hard work!

[@pattygaugler9636]

Hi Laura, great job. I peel and CHOP the stem up and put it in the breadcrumb, cheese, etc. Cook them in my pressure cooker. 6 chokes take 13 minutes. I love them. Been eating em for over 70ý years. Great job. ❤

[@lindaparker6102]

Patty Gaugler Never have eaten artichokes , curious food for me ! What does it taste like ?

[@mylenadarasmo2095]

Laura, I truly love when you tell some of your family stories with us when you cook...makes us feel like we too are part of your family!

[@imvernsgal]

“Taste of my childhood” was a statement you made that rang true! Our Italian family begged for these as often as possible. No occasion needed. Mom made hers in a large pot with the chokes sitting on a rack over water. She steamed them until the leaves fell off. Oh my !! My siblings and I fought over them and we even ate them for breakfast. Cold straight out of the fridge. The reward after peeling leaves one by one was that delicious soft heart. I covered it in salt and gobbled the heart up. The best! Your recipe looks just like moms. Can’t wait for Spring to try. 👍🏼💕

[@firewolf11SG]

I loved it when you said "I feel like I need some time alone", because that's exactly how I feel when I scoop that artichoke leaf into my mouth! Love, love, love artichokes! I also trim & boil them, remove the cooked leaves to eat later (usually with some garlic butter or leftover alfredo sauce) then I get rid of the 'choke' part with the yucky hairy thingies & use all the rest with blanched, drained & squeezed spinach, a bechamel sauce & fontina & white cheddar to make artichoke spinach dip.

[@sarahslovely08]

Ive grown up watching food network.And even though I love the food they make its always been unrealistic for my life. BUT your recipes are so easy and you give me the confidence to try them. Thank you for being real and explaining things so well. Ill be sure to try this one out. I LOVE ARTICHOKES :-)

[@ceciledimitriadis1228]

Almost cried when I listen to you remembering your childhood Laura, we can feel you miss Italy so much. Looks delish by the way !

[@joycevra]

Artichokes are such a tease! When I have food I want to be able to eat the whole thing haha

[@Grandpaw2511]

Back in the 50's my Nonna made hers like this but she added some ground pork to the stuffing. I've never tried making this but it sure brought back some good memories so I think I'll give it a try. Thanks for the video.

[@JayFoxFire]

My mom makes it with chicken broth instead of olive oil; it just has more flavor that way. We sprinkle olive oil when we take them out of the oven though. Very yummy.

[@mariaabela8851]

Thank you Laura this has taken me way back to my childhood, my mum & nonna made these exactly the same way, it's been a long time since I had artichoke this way. You have made me all nostalgic that I'm going to making them for Easter. Happy Easter from down under 🐇

[@peaches.14]

My family is mexican and they usually just stuff them with butter cheese and bread crumbs. . although delicious they can be super heavy on my tummy so this recipe looks amazing ! It's so much healthier yet they look absolutely divine! Thanks laura will definitely be making these soon.

[@Armymom1984]

I've only had artichoke chips but this definitely looks like something I need to try! Thank you, Laura! You have brought back my passion for cooking and I love you for it!

[@staciemj74]

I agree, Laura has motivated me to get in the kitchen and try new recipes for my family.

[@DD-hy1nl]

I make mine almost like yours..But I do not put my artichokes in the oven...I was taught to cook them on top of the stove in a big pot of salted boiling water topped with olive oil...I do trim off all the thorny leaves, but I remove the fussy middle from inside the artichoke. And cut off the stem at the bottom..I also keep the stems and boil with my artichokes together in a little bowl within the big pot...I tap the artichoke at the side of the sink to remove any little critter that may be hiding in between the leaves..And rise well under cold running water..I was taught by my grandma and mother to stuff with just fresh chopped parsley, Locatelli grated cheese, chopped garlic and salt and pepper to taste..My husband likes his stuffed with breadcrumbs, I make my artichokes two ways..Some with the breadcrumbs and some the simple way...In a big pot of salted boiling water, I cook the artichokes until the middle leaf is easy to remove..And the meaty part at the tip of the leaves are tender to bite into...So delish, I LOVE artichokes, they are my most favorite of all.

[@auntyelaine781]

I was taught like you....i am sicilian

[@alicebecht859]

I know this is an older video but when I want a truly Italian recipe I go to you!

[@Yaasmeen96]

My grandmas turkish and she makes stuffed artichokes and I've always loved it, she stuffs them with mince though, it was nice to see another version, thanks Laura can't wait to try it

[@motherstation]

My grandma always made them for Easter. She always kept them in the turned-off oven to keep warm while she served the rest of the dinner. We'd all sit down and eat, then when dinner was almost over, grandma would realize she never took them out of the oven and say, "aw, I forgot the carciofi la!". Then we would all laugh (because she always forgets them -lol) and she'd bring them out and we'd all beast on them, like we didn't just finish a 4 course meal! So my childhood memory of them was like... they're "dessert" - lol.

[@jessdekok]

Artichokes dipped in lemon butter😍

[@nicolastraw1769]

Mmmmm!! They look delicious, will be looking out for artichokes for my Easter table, thank you Laura for sharing your lovely recipes xx

[@marisarae766]

"I need to be alone" lmao I've totally had that feeling after eating something I've just cooked

[@usncorpsman7966]

LOL that was funny ...

[@allsmiles3281]

I made this last night. Really good! Next time I'll try steaming the flower more for softer petals. Gives a really great flavor for the stuffing!

[@Jessica-tx9tx]

THANK YOU Laura! My dad's favorite, and no one makes them because they seem so intimidating. I will make these for him on Father's Day!!!! Can you please do some kind of mocha cake???? Like a bakery mocha layer cake?

[@sheteg1]

One of my absolute favs ! I grew up in a predominately 1st generation Italian neighbour in Toronto, Canada. I would always stay for dins when these where served.

[@ictenn]

people in western Turkey also make stuffed artichokes, but we stuf them with rice and dill, and cook them in a pot with water and lemon juice. i was surprised that you didn't get rid of the fuzzy part at the center.

[@blastoff2022]

Excellent! Just like my family’s recipe- Perfecto! Thank you!

[@user-lz2nr8qw4z]

I have been a foodie forever!!!! I have never seen anyone actually make a stuffed artichoke. Thank you so much, I cannot wait to buy some and try this! I have only had the marinated hearts In the jar and love them. I'm super excited, and YOU KNOW!!! I will tag you in Twitter when I make them. 😄😃

[@gisellelopez7197]

I've had artichokes 2ce in my life. Both times I ABSOLUTELY LOVED THEM. Cant wait to try em again!

[@ymb6987]

This is beautiful presentation Laura! I haven't tried stuffed artichokes but have some confidence to reach in and do just that! Thanks for the share - your Nonna is amazing!!

[@Saphire5742]

I've never seen artichokes prepared that way. Looks delicious! I love artichokes

[@antoniahormann1533]

Cant find artichokes anywhere,love love love them.

[@asforibu7326]

I love when you talk about your childhood

[@akepps]

we always have artichokes at our holiday table - the first year my dutch father had dinner with my mom's big italian family, he had never seen them before and didn't know that you're not supposed to eat the entire leaf...the whole family let him eat the entire artichoke!! 36 years later, they still tease him about it!!

[@dicull588]

Great recipe! Love artichokes! I don't use breadcrumbs, instead I chop the stems up and cut the block of parm into small cubes and insert the cubes and stem pieces in between the leaves with some garlic powder/salt. Love, love, love them!

[@shmily126]

I love artichokes so much. Thank you for sharing.

[@angeliquesmith9364]

I haven't eaten artichokes since I was a little girl. My grandmother used to cook them in her kitchen. I wasn't a child who loved vegetables but I loved artichokes!!!

[@LisaErvine]

I love artichokes, this is exactly how my grandmom and mom made them. Thanks for the memories.

[@christinebuncic5998]

Laura, I just recently ate some artichokes on a salad in a restaurant. They were delicious! Having never had them growing up, I wondered how to prepare and cook and clean them. And then I found your video.Thank you!

[@callyclaire1]

Great video. You explain so well....

[@LisaLewis29]

My Papa always added raisins to the stuffing as well. ❤️

[@pattii55]

My family takes a tablespoon and scrapes out the center's small leaves thoroughly until the bottom of them, the "choke" the fuzzy part is scraped out and just a hard flat bottom center is left, then puts some breadcrumbs in the center. The center flat disk the leaves are anchored to is the tastiest part. And to answer someone else's question, you don't eat the leaves you just turn them upside down, and scrape the very bottom soft part of each leaf off (along with breadcrumbs) with your bottom teeth. Love this dish.

[@pattii55]

pattii55 We don't boil them first either, just put them in the oven for an hour, covered. But I'm going to try this method. Am curious.

[@COYOTE165A]

Laura you did not scoop out the middle of them & remove the fuzzy stuff.?

[@NNChick]

I do the Brooklyn Sicilian way.. with the Italian bread crumbs and low water to steam.. but either way, Italian stuffed artichokes are awesome! #nom

[@pattiepan]

Just like the way I make them..love them too yummmmmmmmm

[@ginorisbaber7084]

You put a smile on my face. Loved it !

[@jessm305]

Yummy! I love roasted artichokes with lemon, garlic and olive oil. One of my hubby's favorite and making them tonight :) I'll have to try them this way.

[@Saboresamiestilo]

What an amazing recipe. You always find The easy way to cook delicious!,

[@MrRickyjimenez]

Thank You so much for making these I have been waiting for you to make these. Can you please make an artichoke pie???? My grandmother used to make these too!! memories.

[@dedrajade5394]

My Mom always added eggs to mixture and a lot more cheese.. then boiled them with stuffing.. were always delish:)

[@christinesciberras8691]

Never tried to roast them,In Malta we Don t pre cook them, we fill them with garlic, parsley , tuna, we cut in small pieces the stem of the artichoke and anchovies then we cook them in a pot with some potatoes and olives. Yummy :) that's our Maltese version ; )

[@hogmrc]

Do you ever put a little marinara sauce on top? That's how my dad made them. Delicious either way!!!!

[@elinex2018]

Omg Laura I loooooooove your recipes so much!!!! This looks delicious again, as all your recipes. You explain it very clearly and the results are always yummy and foolproof! I'm so happy that I have discovered your channel. Almost every day I cook something from one of your recipes. I love you!!!! Kisses from Holland

[@vanessad819]

omg my nonna does this all the time! she puts kalamata olives into the filling as well! so yum yum!

[@lambyiii]

i feel sorry for people who have never had artichokes before! usually, i go for the marinated ones in a glass jar or can. here's a good recipe that I like to make with nonmarinated canned artichokes hearts: artichoke tempura! you just mix equal parts water and flour for the batter, i usually just do one cup of COLD water with one cup of flour...add a little salt and the batter is done. then you dry off the artichokes with a paper towel before dipping them in the batter and then you pan fry them. super yummy. super easy and fast way to make fried artichoke hearts!

[@marshab2990]

I have never ate an artichoke before! Always wanted to but never knew how to cook it or eat it! Thanks for this, I can now try it!

[@ImjustKelly73]

My Mom has been wanting to try these for a long time, but hasn't yet. I should give them a go for her and see if she likes them. TFS Laura! :)

[@FortheLoveofOrganizing]

Beautiful dish! Can't wait to try!

[@lindac5680]

Thank you Laura!

[@nickimarie1312]

So funny to see how many people have never had artichokes before. Such an italian thing I guess. I was raised on them. My family takes the choke out and just stuffs the center then you eat the heart after you eat the rest.

[@2075vj]

I love artichokes...will I did grow up in little Italy Ny..

[@aeelayyan]

Nona's recipes are my favorite!

[@joslynp]

we stuff them with tuna, parsley and garlic and we stuff them in the middle not on every leaf and in a big saucepan with olives and potatoes...super delish 😀

[@naomif6666]

Omg i have been waiting for this recipe!!! Both my nonnas make this, all the time!!! Exactly like yours as well :)

[@ThePreetyuvi]

I was so craving the artichoke so I am making them thanks Laura for recipe ..

[@vicinalucinda]

You are really talented :) And great job talking and cooking at the same time!

[@cbasallie]

I used to eat these as a child. My grandmother would make them. I LOVED them so much but always assumed they'd be too hard to make . Somehow you made this look easy. I can't wait to try it. Thanks....

[@gypsyrain369]

THANK YOU FOR THIS SHARE !

[@KelyrinYourSafeSpace]

Laura that is awesome !!! Can't wait to try it !! The way i've always eaten artichoke is I boil it, and then eat each leaf dipped in vinaigrette :D yum ! Also, just a little tip, if you wash the artichoke before cooking it, then you can actually drink the water you boiled it in, it's soooo good for your health !!! :)

[@TuckerSP2011]

We make them a little differently. We stuff the raw, cleaned artichokes, place them in a pot with 1 inch or so of water, drizzle with lots of olive oil, cover and steam until a leaf comes out easily. Aldo we clean the center of the choke and stuff that as well.

[@kingjojo142]

First time cooking this tonight thx for the recipe Laura

[@makaylazimmer1612]

My dad makes his like that all the time and its very good

[@HanaBerlin]

Fantastic!

[@The_MooseWhisperer]

This is spot on!

[@Cheryljuly1972]

Omg thank you this is how my mother and grandmother made them. Perfect tfs

[@BieberToronto]

My gonna makes these the exact same way as you Laura! These are the best

[@anitatheama]

Thank you so much for this recipe!! I've always wanted a good artichoke recipe!!

[@emilynelson6502]

"I feel like I need to be alone..." Haha! Love you Laura!

[@Camtonks]

I am from Chile and we eat them the same way but we do a vinaigrette to eat them with and its amazing

[@koramahkoo]

Thank sis.. all the recipes are very beautiful and easy .. I am from Saudi Arabia

[@jdljm]

I'm totally making these !! You rock laura !!!!

[@sydneyorourke8375]

Laura, this spring and summer can you PLEASE make more ice cream and sorbet recipes! for example raspberry sorbet and French vanilla ice cream, thank you

[@cutestyle9935]

Hello Laura, Could you please make more ice and sorbet recipes for spring? PS: Another flawless recipe, you never cease to amaze!!

[@olkaolga]

I made this and it turned out very tasty! The artichoke itself needed more flavor. When there was a lot of stuffing on the leaf, it was delicious but without the stuffing, not so good. so when i ate all the leaves, the only way I was able to eat the "meat" on the bottom is by actually putting the stuffing on it. So my suggestion is to make a LOT of stuffing and save some for later considering how bland the bottom tastes without it. Also, when she mentioned putting little water in the baking pan, make sure you put very little! I put a little but my artichoke was huge and some of my petals opened up a lot so the stuffing on the bottom got wet from it and was not good because it became soggy and the crumbs lacked that delicious crunchiness.

[@ibtissamghalbi3159]

I saw this yesterday on your instagram.i wanted that recipe so bad now i have it thank you laura you light my life hope see you when day.♡♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♡♡♡♡♡♥♥♥♥♥♥♡♡♡♡

[@leejas72]

Oh Laura!!! My Nonna has the same recipe and I've been making these all my life. Now I'm craving then!! Lol.

[@JustMe-gf1ko]

Love this.....thaaaaank you for showing us HOW to make THESE!! Always wondered ♡ Yummo 🙂

[@SAVETHEKIDS-bn5zo]

If I buy the 4C breadcrumbs should I buy Plain or seasoned breadcrumbs thank you for your amazing recipe your so organized love it all the best

[@ray_ray_7112]

Your recipe turned out GREAT for me Laura! Basically it is all the same ingredients that my family has used for years. The only difference is that We use the Italian Seasoned Bread Crumbs, just as you mentioned as an alternative. Oh and also, my artichokes were so HUGR, so I cooked them a little longer in the water. then they spread out way too much and looked sloppy after I stuffed them. That's okay though, because the final results made it all worthwhile. They were tasty and as tender as your sweet personality!

[@gin2546]

If I prepare these night before my event, how long should I reheat them for? Should I reheat in oven or is microwave ok to reheat? How much time should I reheat for?

[@DabneyFountain]

FAbulous.

[@TheGreenpetal]

Well explained. Looks delicious.

[@seluk92]

I feel so bad, i have never tried artichokes :(

[@tamartamar774]

Me too! I'm really curious to know what they taste like 💁

[@randymarsh787]

Tamar's Jewelry Box They have a delicate artichoke flavour!

[@FleurPillager]

***** You must try them. They are delicious and nutritious.

[@JayFoxFire]

It tastes like.... a mild vegetable flavor. Hm, kinda hard to explain. It taste more then a mild asparagus with chicken flavor broth breadcrumb filling (That what I eat all the time every holiday like Thanksgiving and Easter.)

[@himekolovesmusic]

Is okay..i never saw it or tried it before😂

[@zainabkazi1964]

Thanks for the recipe Laura

[@victorlarrea2442]

What do you do when you get to the middle? Is there a way to remove the fuzz while keeping the artichoke whole, or do you just eat and stop when you get to the middle.

[@autumnchristyle]

Laura, I think you are so talented and entertaining & I know you have to explain sometimes why you do this/that but I dislike when you have to give reasons about how or why you do something a certain way. This is your channel, we're here to watch you! Well, I know I am. No disclaimers needed. Continue to do you boo! lol

[@MakeupbyAliciaE]

My mum cooks them in sauce. Love carciofi

[@fooddesigner3843]

looks good!!!

[@stay_blessed23]

Laura : I feel like I need to be alone Me: Looks like you need 5 min XD

[@melluvs2cook]

so pretty! I love artichokes but have never cooked them or eaten them that way. process seems really tedious stuffing them!
