STOVETOP STUFFED ARTICHOKES

Steps:

• To start, trim the artichoke stems to fit nicely inside of a stockpot or Dutch oven with the lid on. Note that the artichokes should be snug to prevent from tipping over while cooking. Use scissors to trim the sharp tips of the leaves. Use a serrated knife to cut off the top inch of each artichoke, then use the tip of a knife to cut out the hairy choke in the center of each. You may need a spoon to help scoop it out.
• Zest the lemons into a medium mixing bowl and set aside. Remove the ends of the lemon and cut in half across the equator. Push the stem of each artichoke into a lemon half to create a wider base for the artichokes once inside the pot.
• To the mixing bowl with the zest, add the breadcrumbs, Parmesan, parsley and some salt and pepper and stir to combine. Using a small spoon, pour the breadcrumb mixture into the core of one of the artichokes until it meets the top leaves. Next, sprinkle the breadcrumb mixture around the outside layers, making sure to fill in between all of the leaves. Gently tap the artichoke stem against the counter to ensure the breadcrumbs are settled into place. Repeat with the rest of the artichokes and the remaining breadcrumb mixture.
• Carefully place the stuffed artichokes (and lemon bases) into the stockpot. Pour the vegetable stock into the pot, making sure not to get the tops of the artichokes wet. The cooking liquid should not be high enough to touch the stuffing. Place the whole garlic cloves into the pot and turn the heat to medium high. Once the cooking liquid begins to simmer, place the lid on the pot and cook until the artichokes are tender and a leaf is easy to remove, 35 to 40 minutes.
• Using tongs, remove the artichokes from the pot. Discard the lemon bases, garlic cloves, and cooking liquid. Serve the artichokes immediately with marinara sauce for dipping, if desired.
• Place a saucepot over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil and onions. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are softened and translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds more. Pour in the red wine and cook for 1 minute to reduce. Using your hands or a potato masher, crush the tomatoes and add to the saucepot, including any juices from the can. Stir to combine. Add the basil sprig. Bring the sauce to a simmer and reduce the heat to medium low. Cook until the sauce is thickened slightly, about 15 minutes.

ARTICHOKE PARMESAN SOUP

Steps:

• Chop the carrot, celery and onion into almost a purée in a food processor. Set aside.
• Drain the artichoke hearts and reserve the liquid. Place the artichoke hearts in the food processor and purée, using some of the liquid if necessary to facilitate puréeing. Set aside.
• Heat up the olive oil in a large saucepan, then add the puréed carrot, celery and onion and cook on high heat for 1 minute, stirring constantly because they can burn easily. Add the puréed artichoke hearts and their liquid and 4 cups water. Bring the soup to a boil on high heat, then reduce the heat to medium and let it simmer gently for 20 to 30 minutes, stirring every few minutes so that it doesn't stick to the bottom of the pan!
• Mix the cornstarch with 1 cup warm water in a small bowl, using your hands to make sure the cornstarch is fully dissolved, then add the mixture to the soup and bring it back to boil. If the soup is too thick for your taste, add a bit more water; if it is too thin, add a bit more cornstarch mixed with water. Don't overdo it, because a bit of cornstarch goes a long way.
• Add the cream to the soup and stir, then remove the pot from the stove. Add the grated cheese to the soup a bit at the time, using a whisk to work it into the soup so that it doesn't form large clumps. Add 1 tablespoon salt, then taste the soup and, if you think it is necessary, add the remaining 1 1/2 teaspoons salt.
