<\/figure>\n\n\n\nIf you grow your own artichokes like I do, you know there are some tiny artichokes that grow below the large central ones. You can leave them and hope they grow, but they never do. Eventually, they will just open into pretty purple flowers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Well, this year I cut them off and marinated them. My salads have been amazing this week. And it is really easy to do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ingredients for marinated baby artichokes<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
I used garlic and rosemary to flavor my artichokes. Use what you have or like best. Some suggestions:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
- \n
- red or white wine vinegar instead of the fresh lemons<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- other fresh herbs: basil, thyme, oregano, parsley<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- dried herbs: same as fresh or Italian seasoning<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- spice them up with a pinch of crushed red peppers.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
Where to get fresh baby artichokes<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
If you don't grow artichokes, you may be able to find them in farmer's markets or specialty markets like Whole Foods, or ask your produce manager at your local supermarket to see if they can order them. Melissa's Produce<\/a> has them available to order online.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
How to use marinated baby artichokes<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
You can serve them in salads like I did, or turn them into amazing dips like this Spinach Artichoke Dip<\/a> or my aunt's famous Hot Cheesy Artichoke Dip<\/a>. Other ideas:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
