Preserved Artichokes
Ingredients
Directions
Cook the artichokes until half done.
Separate the leaves from the fleshy part called 'the bottom.'
Turn the bottoms into cold water to firm them up.
Place them in the oven four times until they become thin, hard, and transparent.
Serve raw with salad sauce.
