  1. 7. alcachofas confitadas in #Santader : I think I knew #artichokes a lot and #Italy is big in this, and I thought nothing could ever compare with the ones I tasted in #Roma. So I was really surprised to have THE BEST of my life in an asador restaurant in #Santander 😱 . Allegedly 6 hours of cooking in the oven at 60°C , the most tender and sublime I ever had.

  6. I inherited some interesting kitchen tools from my parents’ place. They used these tongs to pull cooked artichokes out of the steamer. So do I.

    Turns out it’s a tool to take canning jars out of boiling water.

    Whatever. It works great to lift artichokes without having them fall apart.

  11. Artichokes and Hollandaise

    When I was around 3 or 4, my pappy---mom's dad, who was a flying ace in WWI, started the peruvian air force, and taught us how to mislead mom---died. Well meaning neighbors from all over our East Tennessee suburban neighborhood of Colonial Heights brought endless cassaroles and other dining monstrosities. At three, I found this insanely not good. So after a few too many days of grean beans soaked in campbell's mushroom soup topped with dehydrated onions, I went crying to mom and asked her […]

  21. TIL that Jerusalem artichokes and artichokes are not the same.

    I did make a recipe with artichokes instead of Jerusalem artichokes. (The artichoke and potato hash.) Still tasted nice, but it wasn't the right recipe.

    Unfortunately, quite a few recipes in the NiMe cookbook want Jerusalem artichokes, and these seem to be rare around here.

    "Would you like French fries with that?"

    "Yes."

    [Later]

    "Waiter! There's a problem with my order."

    "Oh?"

    "These fries are not French."

    "What makes you say that?"

    "They speak Spanish!"

  25. I think I'm old enough and wise enough to admit that maybe I just don't like #Artichokes.

    Definitely don't like preparing them.

    Pretty sure I rarely like eating them, which sometimes feels like just as much as work as preparing them.

    Simmered for a long time in something that renders them near undetectable? Sure, fine.

    Otherwise -- I think I'll just skip them.

  30. Thing about #artichokes is they’re basically just giant thistles tat you have to boil for like forever and even then finding out if they’re done involves asbestos gloves.

    Then you get the meanest morsel from the base of each leaf.

    But dipped in #vinaigrette and … 🤩
