I bought these at a local fruit store at a cost of 10 for 1 and a half euros. It's artichoke season here. These have long stems that are edible and are of a reddish hue. Of course their flavor is sublime. Later on there will be different ones that are more like the ones in the States. And in the spring, the really big ones with no spines arrive, It's the beauty of eating local vegetables that are in season. Of course super market
s carry all sort of insipid stuff that is out of season.
Greetings, this blog is dedicated to my life in photography and my passion for good Italian food.. I want to make this a place to stop and relax. In the hope that this will provide some respite and peace. Thank you for visiting.
