Artichokes, which are prettier than flowers, are in short supply abroad.

We have learned since childhood that the word aristocracy is very mysterious and distant. For us ordinary people, aristocracy is out of reach. Since we cannot become aristocrats, it should not be difficult to taste what aristocrats eat and let us enjoy the treatment of aristocrats.

Today we are talking about an unusual, classic aristocratic food, artichokes.

I believe many people have not heard of it, artichokes, also known as sexy lotus, look at this shape, or really like a blossoming lotus, artichokes, is a higher fiber vegetables, can detoxify and clear intestines. High iron content, very nutritious, with the title of "King of vegetables". Because there is not much planting, it is very rare in the market. Of course, the price is not cheap.

Artichokes can grow to more than two meters high, but the edible part is the fruit at the top like a flower, and the edible part is only 1/10 of the fruit, and the price is more expensive, probably because this is called an aristocratic vegetable.

We all know that host Li Xiang, rich is well known, should be called aristocratic bar, look at the usual shopping, the first choice of artichokes, people this is a daily vegetable, is it a bit out of reach?

Artichokes blossom, luxurious atmosphere, delicate and blurred, so that we can not imagine how to eat it?

First of all, artichokes can eat the soft and tender part at the bottom of the leaves (petals), and the receptacle in the middle, which tastes like tender bamboo shoots in spring and has a delicate fragrance.

When eating, boil the artichokes in water and season them with salt and lemon for about 45 minutes. Then pick it up and filter out the water, put it on a plate and eat!

Peel off the leaves one by one, use salad dressing or oil and vinegar sauce to make dip, eat a little bit of "meat" at the bottom. Later, the more the middle leaves, the more tender, the more meat you can eat.

Finally, the leaves are all peeled off, the middle inedible part is scraped off with a spoon, and the rest of the disc-shaped base is the flower core of "delicious in the world". Come and enjoy the delicious food as soon as possible.

As for how to eat this piece of flower core, you can do as you please. French and Italian restaurants cut them into small pieces, sprinkle them with sauce, and diners eat them directly with a spoon.

Artichokes can also be used for barbecue, which is more approachable. Eat the same way as above, but directly take the part of the edible flower core, mix it with olive oil and bake it on the barbecue oven for 10 minutes, then serve with beef or sea fish as a delicious meal!

Well, seeing here, you are also honored to be an aristocrat who can eat artichokes. I heard that demand will also be in short supply in foreign countries.
