Steps:
- Place the mushrooms in a bowl or large Pyrex measuring cup. Bring 2 cups water to a boil, and pour over the mushrooms. Let sit 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, prepare the artichokes. If small, cut in half; quarter if large.
- Place a strainer lined with cheesecloth or paper towels over a bowl, and drain the mushrooms. Squeeze the mushrooms over the strainer to extract liquid, then rinse in several changes of water to rid them of grit. Set aside. Add enough water to the bowl to make 3 cups of soaking liquid.
- Heat the olive oil over medium heat in a large, heavy casserole or lidded nonstick skillet. Add the onion, and cook, stirring, until tender, about five minutes. Stir in the garlic and mushrooms, and cook together, stirring, until fragrant, about one minute. Add the tomato paste and cook, stirring, until it darkens and begins to caramelize in three to five minutes.
- Drain the artichokes, and add with the potatoes. Stir together for another minute, then stir in the wine. Bring to a boil, and cook until most of the liquid is gone. Add the soaking liquid from the mushrooms, the bay leaf, thyme, salt and pepper. Bring to a simmer, reduce the heat, cover and simmer 40 minutes, until the potatoes and artichokes are tender. Uncover, turn up the heat, and reduce the liquid in the pan to thicken. Remove from the heat, taste and adjust salt and pepper. Stir in a teaspoon or more of fresh lemon juice, if desired, and the parsley. Serve hot or at room temperature.

PROVENçAL ARTICHOKE RAGOUT
This is the way my friend Christine Picasso prepares artichokes. Her touch is the inclusion of sweet red peppers, a nutritious complement to the bitter artichokes. She calls this Artichauts à la barigoule, a dish every French cook makes differently, each claiming his or hers to be the authentic version.

Steps:
- How to trim artichokes: Fill a bowl with water, and add the juice of 1/2 lemon. Cut the stems off the artichokes, and with a sharp knife, cut away the tops - about 1/2 inch from the top for baby artichokes, 1 inch for larger artichokes. Rub the cut parts with the other half of the lemon. Break off the tough outer leaves until you reach the lighter green leaves near the middle. With a paring knife, trim the bottom of the bulb right above the stem by holding the knife at an angle and cutting around the artichoke, until you reach the light flesh beneath the tough bottoms of the leaves. Cut small baby artichokes in half, or large artichokes into quarters, and cut away the chokes if the artichokes are mature. Immediately place in the bowl of acidulated water.
- Heat the oil in a large, heavy nonstick skillet or casserole over medium heat, and add the onion and celery. Cook, stirring, until tender, about three to five minutes. Add the red pepper and about 1/4 teaspoon salt, and stir together for three to five minutes until the pepper begins to soften. Add the garlic, and stir together for another minute, until the garlic is fragrant. Add the tomatoes and a little more salt, and cook, stirring from time to time, for 10 minutes, until the tomatoes have cooked down and smell fragrant. Add the artichokes, thyme, bay leaf and enough water to cover the artichokes halfway, and bring to a simmer. Add salt and pepper, then cover and simmer 30 to 40 minutes, until the artichokes are tender and the sauce fragrant. Check from time to time and add water if necessary. Add the lemon juice, taste and adjust salt and pepper.
