Using a sharp paring knife, trim any remaining green parts from the heart. Rub with the cut side of the remaining lemon half. Scoop out the fuzzy choke with a melon baller or spoon. Rub again with the lemon half. Place the artichoke heart in the lemon water to prevent discoloration while you trim the rest.
