Artichokes with Salty Butter
Ingredients:
2 artichokes
1/2 lemon
3 liter (13 cups) water
3 teaspoon salt
How to make it:
1. If you have artichokes from your own garden. Put them in a bucket of water with a dash of vinegar for about an hour. This will clean them for unwelcome bugs.
2. Pour water, add lemon, and salt in a pot. Let it come to a boil.
3. Add artichokes in the boiling water and let simmer for about 40 min.
4. Lift the artichokes out of the water and place them on a dish.
5. Enjoy this perfect starter with real dairy butter.
Each leaf has a small meaty part at the bottom, and at the end you will discover the tender artichoke heart. Scrape the hair off and eat it with some extra butter and salt.
