Directions

Prep 5 minCook 35 min
  1. 1

    Add 1 to 2 inches of water to a large pot, then add the minced garlic, a slice or two of lemon, and the bay leaf. Set a steaming basket in the pot above the water level.

  2. 2

    Place the artichokes in the basket, cover, and bring the water to a boil. Reduce to a gentle simmer and steam until the outer leaves pull away easily and a knife slides into the base with little resistance, about 25 to 45 minutes depending on size.

  3. 3

    Remove from the pot and let drain briefly. Serve warm or at room temperature with your preferred dipping sauce, if desired.
