ARTICHOKES A LA BARIGOULE

Steps:

• Fill a large bowl with water, and add lemon juice. Peel the dark green outer leaves from the artichokes, and peel stem to remove fibrous outer layer. Cut off spiny tops of leaves. Cut artichokes lengthwise into quarters, and remove chokes. Immediately add artichokes to water.
• In a large pot, warm olive oil over medium low heat. Add the garlic, parsley stems, onion, fennel, carrots and celery. Season lightly with salt and pepper. Gently cook vegetables until onions are translucent but not brown, stirring frequently, about 10 minutes. Add white wine, and cook until reduced by 3/4.
• Add artichokes to pot, and pour broth or water over them. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer, covered, until artichokes are tender, offering no resistance when pierced with a knife, about 35 minutes. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Discard parsley stems. Add whole parsley leaves to pot, and let wilt slightly. Spoon artichokes and vegetables onto plates with a little of the cooking liquid.

ARTICHOKES A LA BARIGOULE

Steps:

• Trim artichokes; leave stems on, and remove tough outer leaves, leaving pale-green edible ones. Neatly pare base and stem; cut off very top of artichokes. Rub with cut lemon; squeeze juice from lemons into ice water, and add lemon halves and artichokes.
• In Dutch oven, cook pancetta in oil over medium heat until brown and crisp and fat is rendered, about 10 minutes. Remove pancetta with slotted spoon; reserve. Add shallots and garlic; cook 5 minutes, stirring and picking up brown bits from bottom, until golden.
• Add carrots, thyme, bay leaves, salt, and pepper to Dutch oven; cook until just tender, 4 to 6 minutes. Add wine and stock, and stir until boiling. Place artichokes on bed of vegetables; cover, and simmer on medium-low heat until tender, stirring, 20 to 30 minutes. If liquid has evaporated, add 1/2 cup additional chicken stock. Raise heat, reduce liquid just to thicken slightly, and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper. You should end up with a slightly thickened, rich brown liquid. Stir in parsley and reserved pancetta.
• Place the artichokes on a deep serving platter or bowl, and spoon the vegetables and sauce over artichokes. Drizzle with the balsamic vinegar, and serve.

ARTICHOKES EN BARIGOULE RECIPE - (4.8/5)

Steps:

• Clean the artichokes by removing the leaves and with a knife, clean the steam and the heart. With a melon baler, remove the choke. Rub the artichokes with ½ the lemon so they don't discolour. As soon as one artichoke is cleaned, put it in acidulated water (water with ½ the lemon juice). In a non-reactive sauce pot, put the olive oil, the carrots and the onions and sauté until they reach a golden colour. Add the artichokes, hearts down, and add the white wine. Top up with water so that the artichokes are almost all submerged. Add the bay leaf, the thyme and season with salt and pepper. Cook for 15 minutes on the stove top. Remove the artichokes carefully and reduce the sauce to the consistency that you desire.
