Profile: Artichoke

The artichoke is the edible flower bud of a thistle, long valued in Mediterranean diets for both its flavor and health benefits. Rich in fiber, antioxidants, and cynarin, a compound known to support liver function and digestion, artichokes are as nourishing as they are beautiful. They thrive in mild coastal climates and are grown in regions like California, Italy, Spain, and France. In California, harvest peaks in spring and fall, making March an ideal time to enjoy them fresh. For this dish, only the hearts were trimmed and cooked, highlighting their tender texture in a saffron-infused broth. Want to learn more?
