Description
Globe artichokes are actually a variety of thistles native to the Mediterranean region, cultivated to be edible.
They are commonly served boiled or steamed, dipped in butter or mayonnaise, but can also be eaten raw.
Some people think that the name is derived from the choke in the middle of the flower, which resembles an artichoke. However, others believe that it is due to the thorny nature of the bracts surrounding the flowers.
