ROAST BABY ARTICHOKES AND SPRING VEGETABLES
Baby artichokes are small and tender enough that you can eat the choke part, unlike with a larger artichoke. When you roast them, they get almost sweet, and the edges get just a little crispy. Read on for step-by-step instructions for how to trim and prepare baby artichokes and a recipe for roast baby artichokes with spring vegetables.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Spray a baking sheet with cooking oil spray.
- Prepare artichokes: Mix lemon juice with cold water in a small mixing bowl. As you trim each artichoke, add it to the bowl of lemon water to prevent browning. Use a serrated knife to cut off the top 1/3 of the artichokes (with the pointy ends). With your hands, peel back the outer leaves at the base and remove until you get to the tender, lighter green leaves inside. Then use a vegetable peeler to remove the outer tough part of the stem. Trim off the very end of the stem. Cut in half lengthwise.
- Toss carrots and radishes with 1 tablespoon olive oil and salt and pepper. Spread out on baking sheet. Bake for 15 minutes.
- After the carrots and radishes have been roasting for 15 minutes, remove the pan from the oven and stir or shake to move the veggies around. Drain artichokes. Toss artichokes, sugar snap peas, and green onions with remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil and salt and pepper. Add the artichokes, snap peas, and onions to the same baking pan with the carrots and radishes and spread out into an even layer. Return to oven and roast for additional 15 minutes, or until vegetables are tender. (It will be 30 minutes total roasting time for the carrots and radishes.)

GRILLED BABY ARTICHOKES WITH MIXED HERBS VINAIGRETTE
Steps:
- For the artichokes: Fill a large pot with cold water. Squeeze the lemons into the water, and then drop them into the pot. Add the olive oil and salt. Add the artichokes and cook until a paring knife inserted into the center meets with a little resistance, about 15 minutes. Drain and shock in cold water for 30 seconds. Drain again and transfer to a sheet lined with paper towels to dry.
- While the artichokes are cooking, make the vinaigrette: Whisk the mustard, honey, lemon zest and juice and some salt and pepper in a medium bowl. Slowly whisk in the olive oil until emulsified.
- Heat a charcoal or gas grill to high. Halve the artichokes, brush with canola oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill until golden brown and slightly charred on both sides, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a large bowl and toss with the vinaigrette, herbs and red pepper flakes.
- Serve with grilled Italian bread.

Steps:
- Using a sharp paring knife, trim the outermost layer of leaves from each artichoke. Trim stems, and cut off top half of each artichoke. As you trim them, place them in a medium bowl; add lemon juice, and toss to coat.
- Transfer artichokes to a medium nonreactive saucepan. Add enough cold water to cover artichokes by 1 inch. Using a small heat-proof plate, weigh down the artichokes to keep them submerged. Bring to a simmer over high heat. Reduce heat to low, and simmer artichokes until fork-tender, about 15 minutes. Transfer to a colander to drain.
- Cut artichokes in half lengthwise. In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add artichokes in a single layer, and cook until hot, about 3 minutes. Add garlic and parsley. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 1 minute longer. Season with salt and pepper. Serve immediately.
DEEP-FRIED BABY ARTICHOKES
Steps:
- Stem artichokes even with their bases and remove and discard any hard outer leaves. In a large saucepan of boiling salted water blanch the artichokes for 6 minutes, or until just tender. Drain the artichokes and refresh under cold water. gently spread the leaves of the artichokes outward. Flatten with the side of a knife, being careful not to crack them, and pat dry. Dredge in flour and coat with eggs, letting excess drip off. Coat with bread crumbs. In deep fryer or heavy saucepan heat oil to 375 F. and fry artichokes, a few at a time, for 3 minutes, or until golden. Transfer to paper towels to drain.
ROASTED BABY ARTICHOKES
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Prepare artichokes. Remove the tough outer leaves of the artichokes and trim the stems. Use a vegetable peeler to remove the tough outer green layer from the stem. Cut off the top third of the head to remove the tough ends of the leaves, then split it down the middle. Rub with lemon as you work so they don't turn brown.
- Mix together the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, salt, pepper and garlic. Lay the artichoke halves cut-side up in a roasting dish and drizzle with the olive oil mixture. Roast in the oven until the artichokes are tender, about 20 minutes.
- To serve, top with the cheese and garnish with the parsley.
