As you may have noticed in my 2 previous posts, I also had some artichoke hearts creating a beautiful arrangement, and holding all of my wild rice in one place. I love artichoke, especially with some kind of butter, garlic, sour cream "concoction" to go with it... yum!RECIPE:
1 artichoke heart
salt
olive oil
2 tbsp butter
2 tbsp garlic, minced
1/4 c sour cream
Cut a portion of the stem off the artichoke. Place in pan with 1/4 c water, salt and 1 tsp olive oil. Let the water boil, covered, until the pedals on the artichoke open up and become soft; 15-20 minutes. Meanwhile, melt butter and garlic in a small pan, then allow to cool. Add to sour cream and use as a dip for the artichoke flowers.
Pull the pedals off the cooked artichoke, dip into sour cream and SMILE!

This and the swordfish look divine! I have not made artichokes, whole ones in a while...I go crazy if I buy them in the cans in water...the sodium is so high I could float my own raft, lol
Yum! All your dishes look excellent! Love the artichokes.
Artichoke hearts are such a divine food. I would be smiling too if I had some of these on my plate :)
