Artichoke tapenade recipes Ingredients
4 Artichokes
Juice of 1/2 lemon - plus
1 teaspoon 5ml Lemon juice - divided
1/4 cup 59ml Olive oil
1/4 cup 36g / 1.3oz Chopped pitted green Sicilian olives
1 Garlic clove - minced
1/2 teaspoon 2.5ml Minced fresh thyme
Salt - to taste
Freshly-ground black pepper - to taste
Fresh thyme sprigs
Toasted French bread slices
Trim the tops and stems of the artichokes. Stand the artichokes upright
in a steamer, and steam until a leaf easily pulls out from one of
them, about 45 minutes.
Remove the artichokes; when cool enough to handle, remove the leaves
and discard. Scoop out the chokes with a spoon. Peel and remove any
tough skin from the stems and bases of the artichokes, placing the
cleaned bottoms in a bowl of water with the juice of half of a lemon
as you work.
Cut the bottoms into quarters. Pulse in a food processor until pureed
but slightly chunky. Add the olive oil, pulsing to mix.
Spoon the mixture into a small bowl, and stir in the olives, garlic,
1 teaspoon lemon juice, minced thyme and salt and pepper to taste.
Spoon into a serving bowl and garnish with thyme sprigs. Serve with
toasted French bread slices.
