BABY ARTICHOKES, ELEGANT AND EASY FIRST COURSE
These BABY ARTICHOKES are delightfully unique served as a first course. COOKS NOTES: Please adjust dressing quantity for your needs. I suggest perhaps adding a squeeze of lemon juice and a dash of paprika for color.

Steps:
- Boil artichokes, completely submerging in salted water until tender, 10-20 minutes, depending on their size. Drain well and cool.
- Discard tough outer leaves, cut off stem so that the artichoke will stand by itself on a plate.
- Cut across the top part of the artichoke, 1/2" or so, and use scissors to decoratively cut across a few of the remaining outside leaves to resemble a "flower". Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
- Mix mayonnaise, mustard, kosher salt and pepper to taste.
- When ready to serve, use a spoon to place a thick line of the mayonnaise-mustard mixture off to one side of each individual small flat serving plate.
- Use a clean, unused comb, or similar, to draw wavy lines on the plate through the sauce. Place the cooked artichokes on the plate and sprinkle dill weed atop the "wavy" sauce, and serve.

PAN ROASTED BABY ARTICHOKES
Artichokes are eaten almost as much as onions in Italy, not so much here in the US, so says David Tanis, writing for the NY Times. In this recipe, they are prepared simply and can be eaten as a snack with wine, as a side dish to roasted fish, tossed with spaghetti, or part of an antipasto platter. There is some effort involved in peeling them, but the results are well worth it.

Steps:
- Peel off and discard a few outer petals of the artichokes until you reach the pale, tender center. Trim the top and stem end, then quarter each artichoke. There should be no discernible choke, but if there is, remove it with a paring knife. Put the artichokes in a bowl of cold water to which the lemon juice has been added.
- In a wide, heavy, nonaluminum skillet, heat a 1/2 inch of olive oil over medium heat. Drain and blot the artichokes and, when the oil is nearly smoking, carefully add them to the skillet. Season well with salt and pepper, stirring to coat with oil. Let the artichokes brown slightly, stirring occasionally, for 5 to 7 minutes, until they are tender when probed with a paring knife.
- Add the red pepper, garlic and parsley. Stir well and let sizzle for a minute or so. Transfer the artichokes to a platter, sprinkle with coarse salt and serve with lemon wedges, or sprinkle sparingly with red wine vinegar. Eat hot, or at room temperature.

- Trim your artichokes. Cut off 1/3 from the top of the artichoke, trim the stem and then remove any and all tough outer leaves. You will need to remove more leaves than you think, just keep going until you see the tender inner leaves that are a nice light pale green.
- Slice the artichoke in half and add to the lemony olive oil mixture being sure to toss each half around so it is lightly coated in the lemony goodness. *Once the artichokes are exposed to oxygen they quickly oxidize (aka turn black) so take your time, but try to work as quickly as possible ;)
- Once you have all the artichokes prepped, heat a medium non-stick saut pan over a medium-high heat. Toss artichokes and the lemony olive oil mixture into the pan and season with salt and pepper. Cook for about 3 minutes, or until the artichokes are lightly browned. Add a splash of water to the pan and cook for another 2 minutes.

- Prepare artichokes: Mix lemon juice with cold water in a small mixing bowl. As you trim each artichoke, add it to the bowl of lemon water to prevent browning. Use a serrated knife to cut off the top 1/3 of the artichokes (with the pointy ends). With your hands, peel back the outer leaves at the base and remove until you get to the tender, lighter green leaves inside. Then use a vegetable peeler to remove the outer tough part of the stem. Trim off the very end of the stem. Cut in half lengthwise.
- Toss carrots and radishes with 1 tablespoon olive oil and salt and pepper. Spread out on baking sheet. Bake for 15 minutes.
- After the carrots and radishes have been roasting for 15 minutes, remove the pan from the oven and stir or shake to move the veggies around. Drain artichokes. Toss artichokes, sugar snap peas, and green onions with remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil and salt and pepper. Add the artichokes, snap peas, and onions to the same baking pan with the carrots and radishes and spread out into an even layer. Return to oven and roast for additional 15 minutes, or until vegetables are tender. (It will be 30 minutes total roasting time for the carrots and radishes.)

- Fill a large bowl with cool water, Take just one of the lemon halves (you'll cook with the other half) and squeeze the juice into the water. Go ahead and throw in the spent lemon into the water too.
- Prepare the artichokes by cutting off and discarding the top 1/2" of the artichoke. Peel away the first couple of dark green layers of the artichoke leaves until you reach pale, smooth, light green leaves. Slice the artichoke into 1/4" slices. Place slices into the lemon-water. Repeat with remaining artichokes. You can do this step ahead of time and refrigerate until ready.
- Just before you're ready to cook, place the artichokes into a salad spinner and remove all of the water (or you could pat very dry with towels.)
- Heat a large saute pan (I prefer a wok) over medium-high heat. Swirl in the olive oil. When hot, add the artichoke slices. Try not to overlap the slices - spread them out all over the pan. You may want to cook this in two batches if your pan isn't large enough. Cook for 2 minutes and them toss to flip. The artichokes should be nicely browned.
