Artichokes have been cultivated for centuries, and they are believed to have originated in the Mediterranean region. The ancient Greeks and Romans were both fond of artichokes, and they used them in a variety of dishes. Artichokes were introduced to the Americas by European settlers in the 16th century, and they quickly became a popular food in the New World. Today, artichokes are grown in many parts of the world, and they are enjoyed by people of all cultures. Braising artichokes in broth with lemon juice, garlic, and herbs is a classic method, and it's one of our favorites. The braising liquid infuses the artichokes with flavor, and the lemon juice helps to brighten the flavor and prevent the artichokes from discoloring. But what if you don't have the time to braise artichokes? Or what if you want a dish that's a little more substantial? That's where our baked stuffed artichokes come in.
