Steps:
- In a small bowl whisk all of the aioli ingredients except herbs. Store in the fridge, covered for up to 24 hours. Sprinkle freshly-cut herbs on top right before serving.
- Fill a large (8-quarts or more) pot with water, 2/3 of the way up, and bring to a boil.
- Trim one artichoke at a time, making sure to rub all of the freshly cut parts with a halved lemon as you go, to prevent discoloration. First cut off the very tip of the stem. Next, carefully slice off or shave (with a vegetable peeler) the tough outer skin of the stem. Using your scissors and starting at the bottom of the artichoke, snip off the thorny tip of each leaf (about 1/2 inch) until you get to the top of the artichoke, where the leaves are too crowded to separate.
- Lay the artichoke on its side and slice it in half, starting from the stem. Don't forget to keep wiping the cut parts with lemon. Lay each half cut-side down and slice off 3/4 of an inch from the top, to remove the last bunch of thorny tips. Lemon, lemon.
- Carefully drop the artichoke halves into the boiling water. When it returns to a boil, cover the pot and cook the artichokes for 20 minutes. Don't worry if they aren't all completely submerged. Those parts will cook in the steam. Using tongs, gently transfer the artichoke halves, cut side down, to a bowl (letting the water drip off of them) and let them cool for 15-20 minutes. When they're cool enough to handle, use a teaspoon to carefully scoop out the chokes (the hairy part near the heart). They artichokes are now ready for grilling or you can refrigerate them, covered with plastic wrap, for up to 48 hours before grilling them.
- Heat the grill to medium-high. (If you chill the artichokes overnight, allow them to sit at room temperature for 1/2 hour before proceeding.) Brush artichokes generously on both sides with olive oil and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Grill artichokes for about 5 minutes per side, outside first, until the cut side has grill marks and is nicely browned in spots.
- Serve the artichokes warm or at room temperature. I like to set the artichoke halves out on a big platter and let everyone help themselves. Make sure each person has a small plate, a fork and knife to eat the heart, and a small bowl of aioli for dipping. I usually put out one or two large communal bowls for the discarded leaves.

GRILLED ARTICHOKES WITH LEMON TARRAGON AIOLI
Steps:
- Roughly chop the garlic and add it to the mortar and pestle. Add the sea salt and tarragon leaves and press and grind to break down the garlic and tarragon and a thick paste has formed.
- Transfer the garlic paste to a small bowl and add the egg yolk. Use a whisk to combine the herb mixture with the egg yolk. Add the olive oil to the vegetable oil and very slowly drizzle the oil into the egg mixture, whisking constantly to form an emulsion. Do not add the oil to quickly or the emulsion will break. TIP: Whisk in ONE DIRECTION ONLY. It will take anywhere from 5-7 minutes to add all of the oil into the aioli. Just be patient and whisk and drizzle until it's completely blended and the aioli is thick.
- Squeeze a few drops of lemon juice into the aioli and whisk to combine. Continue adding the rest of the lemon juice from the half of lemon a little at a time, until well blended. Taste for seasoning and adjust as necessary. Cover and refrigerate.
- Cut the stem from each artichoke with a sharp knife, leaving about 1/2" - 3/4" stem remaining. Use a vegetable peeler to peel the outside of the tough fibrous stem down to the more tender interior. Remove the tough outer leaves near the stem of the artichoke and discard.
- Use a pair of kitchen sheers to to cut the end of each petal of the artichoke by about 1/2" so that the spiny tips are flattened and straight. Trim away the top inch of the artichoke using a heavy, sharp knife.
- Add 2-3 cups of water to a large pot (large enough to fit the whole artichokes). Cut one lemon in half and squeeze the juice into the water. Add the lemon halves to the water and set a steamer basket over the water. Add the artichokes to the steamer basket and cover tightly with a lid. Bring to a boil and steam the artichokes for 40 minutes or until tender (you can tell if it's tender by sticking a sharp knife into the center of the artichoke from the bottom. If the knife goes in and out easily, it's done.
- Add 1-2 cups of water to the pressure cooker. Add the lemon juce and squeezed lemon halves. Fit a steaming rack over the water. Place the artichokes in the steamer basket and secure the lid. Bring to high pressure and cook for 8-9 minutes (1-2 minutes longer for very large artichokes). Let the pressure release naturally
- Use a pair of tongs to lift the artichokes from the basket and transfer to a sheet pan. Let the artichokes rest for a few minutes to cool.
- Slice the artichokes in half through the stem. Use a spoon to remove the fuzzy choke and discard. Remove the purple interior leaves and discard. Brush the interior of the artichokes lightly with remaining one tablespoon of olive oil.
- Don't soak the wood chips. They should be DRY. Have a squirt water bottle available for any flareups with the wood chips. Place the wood chips in the smoker box and place over the heat on the grill. Heat the grill to about 450°. When the wood starts to smoke, add the artichokes, cut side down opposite the smoker box -- over direct heat. (Note: since the wood hasn't been soaked, it may catch fire. Use the squirt bottle to tamp down any flames.
- Grill the artichokes for about 4-5 minutes, then use a pair of tongs to flip the artichokes and continue cooking for another 2-3 minutes until they've achieved a light char and smoke flavor. Transfer to a platter and serve with the tarragon aioli on the side.
- To eat the artichokes, peel off each petal and dip the tender interior into a bit of aioli. Put the tender portion (the part closest to the stem) in your mouth and scrape off the soft bits with your front teeth -- getting a little aioli with each taste. Discard the petals and continue to work your way through the artichoke. Note: The artichoke heart and stem are edible and should be the most tender part of the vegetable. Add a bit more aioli to them and enjoy.

CHEF JOHN'S TARRAGON AIOLI
The beauty of aioli made in the traditional method with a mortar and pestle is that a small amount of garlic can flavor a large amount of mayo. Also, this real aioli is so strong and powerful that you don't need half a cup of mayo on your grilled fish. Just a teaspoon of my version is so intense it will fully flavor a whole piece of meat or pile of veggies.

DIPPING SAUCE FOR ARTICHOKES
A boyfriend's mother taught me this great dipping sauce for artichokes and asparagus. It's somewhat like aioli. Replace dried basil for fresh, and garlic salt for the garlic. If you do use dried basil, cut the original amount in half. Use low-fat mayonnaise if you like.

GRILLED ARTICHOKES WITH SESAME DIPPING SAUCE
I love artichokes (see all of the recipe's I have posted) This is from Walt's Wharf in Seal Beach. All the food is superb and beautifully presented, but we always look forward to sharing the delicious grilled artichoke appetizer. The artichokes can be steamed in advance and thrown on the grill just before serving, which makes them perfect for entertaining. COOKS NOTES: You many want to reduce the amount of sesame oil, depending on your tastes. Please note: this is an adopted recipe and I hope to make it soonest. If you make it before I do, I would appreciate feedback, Thanks ! ZWT REGION: United States of America.

- Trim the artichokes: Remove all the tough outer leaves and then, with a very sharp knife, cut off the top of the choke (about an inch) to remove the sharp tips. If you are lucky enough to have a artichoke with stalk, peel the stalk with a vegetable peeler.
- Place the tarragon leaves, garlic cloves, and salt in a clean mortar. (I always fill mine with hot water, pour it out, and dry it before using.)

- To begin, start by cleaning your artichokes. Cut off the tips of the artichokes and slice 1 inch off the top. Remove all the small leaves at the base, and slice off the excess stem at the bottom. Then open up your artichoke gently and looses the leaves without breaking them apart. Slice your artichokes in half, lengthwise. Scoop out the fuzzy chokes if you’re using large globe artichokes.
- Next, boil water in a deep pot. Once boiling, season with salt and add in your artichokes to steam for about 10-15 minutes until you can pierce the heart of the artichoke with a knife. Remove and set aside. Season with salt, pepper and olive oil to get ready for grilling. Start and heat your grill.
- In the meantime, make your aioli. In a bowl, add your egg yolk, garlic and lemon juice and whisk until creamy and mixed throughout. Slowly, start streaming in your aioli and mix well with a whisk until a thick aioli forms, keep whisking until all your oil is finished up and the mixture becomes thick and creamy. Once your aioli is mixed and done, add in chopped tarragon. Set aside.
- If you wanted to make without egg yolk, remove egg yolk and oil measurements and sub with 1/3rd cup mayo and 2 tablespoons olive oil.
