5-Minute Artichokes

Quantity/Pack: 4 count
Seasonality: Year Round
Origin: USA 

Take the guess work out of cooking by placing the globe, still in its plastic wrapper, in a microwaveable container with a little water on high for 5 minutes. Quick, convenient and so very good!              

Artichokes are an edible member of the thistle family and actually the immature bud of what would be a large sunflower-like blossom if not picked for consumption. The leaves have a slightly sweet, nutty flavor; the heart of the artichoke has a creamy-firm, meaty texture and delicate taste.  

Choose globes heavy for their size. Always keep refrigerated; the microwaveable wrapper also serves as a convenient storage container.
