- Break the stem of the artichokes flush with the leaves.
- Plunge the artichokes upside down into a pot of salted boiling water, ensuring they are well secured so that they do not turn over during cooking.
- When the water returns to a boil, allow about 25 minutes for small artichokes and 30 to 40 minutes for larger ones.
- To check if they are cooked, you can pull a leaf; if there is no resistance, they are done!
