Shop NowThe cultivation of the artichoke (Cynara cardunculus, syn. Cynara scolymus) is a must for any vegetable garden. In addition to its delicious flowers, this plant of Mediterranean origin is appreciated by amateur gardeners as a remedy and even as an ornamental plant. The particularity of this vegetable is that the inflorescence is eaten. The thistle-like artichoke is a species that originated from the daisy family (Asteraceae). Depending on the climate, artichokes are grown at different times of the year; in areas where they are grown annually, they are usually planted in the spring, or warmer areas, they survive as perennials and are usually planted as seeds in late summer or as seedlings (or transplants) in mid-fall. They typically take 85 to 100 days to harvest. In this article we give you tips and recommendations on how to best grow artichokes, ending with a simple and delicious recipe.

- Fill a large bowl with cold water. Squeeze the juice from one lemon wedge into the water. Trim the tops from the artichokes, then cut in half lengthwise, and place halves into the bowl of lemon water to prevent them from turning brown.
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Meanwhile, preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat.
- Add artichokes to boiling water, and cook for about 15 minutes. Drain. Squeeze the remaining lemon wedges into a medium bowl. Stir in the olive oil and garlic, and season with salt and pepper.
- Brush the artichokes with a coating of the garlic dip, and place them on the preheated grill. Grill the artichokes for 5 to 10 minutes, basting with dip and turning frequently, until the tips are a little charred. Serve immediately with the remaining dip.
