Recipe: Grilled Artichokes

I had some people express a further interest in our grilled artichokes. I took some photos of them throughout their journey that I’m posting along with a link to the recipe. These were especially large artichokes, complete with stem. Our produce guy pulled them out when he saw us looking in dismay at the small artichokes they had out that day. Bless that man!

The recipe is here.

Here they are fresh out of the boiling brine (and no, I didn’t stage this photo; the thyme spring and bay leaf just fell there naturally) :

YUM! I’ve roasted artichokes but have never thought to grill them. What a good idea!

It took me years here on the east coast to get over my expectation that I could get the same quality of artichoke that was always availabe in San Francisco.

Yum! I’ll have to try this out. 

We usually blanch then dip in butter and lemon…I’m guessing dipping would be redundant prepared like this?
