A few weeks ago I visited with CAGrown the amazing Ocean Mist Farm in Castroville, CA. We had a fabulous tour of the farm and learned a lot about the production cycle of the artichokes.
I was also lucky enough to bring a few back home and I’m happy to show you one of the simplest ways to cook and enjoy this wonderful produce. With just a little prep work at the beginning, this dish comes together in less than an hour.

Artichoke with Mustard Vinaigrette
Ingredientes
- Artichokes, Ocean Mist Farm
- Salt
- 3 or 4 Lemons sliced
For the Mustard Vinaigrette:
- 6 tbsp red or white wine vinegar
- 2 tbsp Dijon mustard
- 100 ml extra virgen olive oil
- Salt and pepper
Instrucciones
- Remove the small leaves at the base and cut off the stem. Set up a pot with water, salt and lemon. Cover the pot and cook the artichokes upside down until a fork easily pierces through the artichoke heart, about 40’. Allow to cool upside down.
- While the artichokes cool, make the vinaigrette with dijon mustard, vinegar, olive oil, salt and pepper. Add artichokes to a platter with the vinaigrette. Dip the artichoke leaves, stem and heart into the vinaigrette and enjoy!
