  I didn't like cooking artichokes myself at all.

  Good straightforward sauce that works well with the artichoke, has a lovely consistency at the end, just don't think about all that butter - it's what makes it taste so good! Alternative is to leave out the parmesan, add a little salt and you have a good cheat's hollandaise! It might be a little too lemony for some tastes so check it before adding all the lemon juice.

  Tried globe artichokes for the first time yesterday and was surprised at how tasty and easy to prepare they were. I made a very simple and decandant sauce of melted butter finished with a sprinkle of sea salt and they were great.

  I haven't tried the sauce, but being a big fan of globe artichokes I thought of sharing a typical Italian dip: 4 parts of extra-virgin olive oil, 1 part of white wine vinegard (balsamic will work too) and sea salt in grains. Stir all the ingredients together but don't let the salt dissolve completely. Serve the sauce in individual little cups and dip the artichoke leave as in the recipe.Once you get to the heart is it worth to dip that too, it's really delicious!! If you have any leftovers of the dip you can use it as salad dressing.
