artichokes

Botanically, Artichokes are a member of the thistle family and, if they are left to flower, grow beautiful flowers that can be dried and enjoyed for years. Artichokes are a great source of dietary fiber and help in cholesterol reduction (only when they aren't enjoyed with butter or mayonnaise!)  Artichokes are best when they are fresh, but can be stored in the refrigerator for up to a week.

Available: March - June
