Italian Carciofi con Gambo | Crudaiola Artichokes with Stem Imported from Puglia | Premium Quality, All Natural Ingredients, No Preservatives Added | 18.3oz (520g) (Pack of 2)

For their artichokes, I Contadini have carefully selected the Violet Brindisi ones, a crisp Apulian artichoke variety. The Brindisi Violet is a very special type of artichoke. Its main feature is its crisp crunch, and the challenge is to preserve it in the finished product without using artificial preservatives. Its name comes from the particular purple color it turns as it ripens. Thanks to the round, full, and unmistakable flavor, the Violet is perfect with a whole variety of hot and cold dishes, while keeping its own sensory qualities unchanged. These artichokes are not grown in nurseries and are cultivated by taking plants from already existing orchards. The cultivation of these artichokes takes place from October and the harvest begins in March. Within 8 hours from the harvest, the artichokes are defoliated, manually cleaned with a paring knife and immediately placed in extra virgin olive oil without adding any condiment or spice, to maximize the unique taste of this product. The whole process, from harvesting to preparation and to putting them into jars is carried out by hand, to dedicate the utmost care to the artichoke. Tender but crunchy, these artichokes can be used to enrich appetizers, cold rice, Mediterranean vegetables and pizza, as well as stir-fried to enrich hot dishes.
