Artichokes are prepared by removing the thick and furry choke, and then
trimming the leaf tips in order to get it upright when cooked. The stem is also
edible, however only if the outer, fibrous layer is removed. The stem can be
sliced off and boiled in salted water. After that, it should be cut in half and
discard the rest. After cooking, the leaves of the artichoke can be removed and
the heart can be sliced. The heart is inedible. The stem and crown should be
removed and the tough outer leaves should be discarded. Slice the heart and
serve it with salads, pasta, and pizza.
Fresh artichokes are firm and heavy. The bracts are tightly packed and
are not flayed wide open. A frost-kissed artichoke may be older or over mature.
Nevertheless, frost-kissed artichokes are often the best. Aside from that, they
can be stored for up to a year in the freezer.
Along with their tasty flavor, artichokes are packed with nutrients. A
recent study in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology found that a
higher ratio of plant-based protein to animal-derived protein reduced the risk
of coronary heart disease. Artichokes contain significant amounts of potassium,
fiber, and other nutrients that support a healthy diet. They can help protect
against cardiovascular disease, lower cholesterol levels, and improve
digestion. In August 2021, Enzymedica launched a nutraceutical supplement
containing artichoke extract, apple cider vinegar, and ginger root CO2 extract
for targeting problems of digestive transport and stomach emptying.
