Robbie Sigona's Produce Tips: Artichokes
Robbie’s Produce Tips: Artichokes
- Artichokes should have tight and closed leaves.
- As with any good fruit or vegetable they should feel heavy for their size. Light airy artichokes have less meat and are usually old.
- They should have a fresh clean cut stem end.
- Refrigerate, unwashed, in a plastic bag for up to 4 days.
