Between October and April is the right time to find fresh artichokes on the fruit and vegetable stand. The rules to buy them? Choose hard and heavy artichokes. If the top of the leaves is black, it means they have been collected for a long time. Even the leaves should be taut and not wilted, because the artichoke is the bud of a flower: the open bracts indicate that it is too ripe, therefore hard and with a lot of hay inside. Equally the stem must be firm and intact.

Among the recipes that we propose below, you can not miss a great classic that we suggest in an even more fanciful version: Stuffed artichoke hearts, stuffed with parmesan, nutmeg and pine nuts. Very good, they represent a simple outline to make and beautiful effect, to take to the table even on special occasions.
