Frequently Asked Questions
How do I prepare artichokes for roasting?
Trim 1/2 to 1 inch off the stem and about 1 inch from the top. Snip any thorns with scissors. Cut artichokes in half lengthwise, rub cut surfaces with lemon to prevent browning, and scoop out the fuzzy choke and small purple leaves with a spoon.
How do I remove the choke safely?
After halving the artichoke, use a spoon to scoop out the fuzzy center and any tight purple leaves. Work gently so you do not remove the heart. Rubbing lemon juice on the exposed area helps keep it fresh while you work.
What keeps artichokes from turning brown after cutting?
Rubbing the cut surfaces immediately with fresh lemon juice prevents oxidation and browning. Do this right after slicing and before seasoning.
What oven temperature and time should I use?
Preheat the oven to 425 F. Place the seasoned artichoke halves cut side up in a baking dish, cover tightly with foil, and roast for 30 to 40 minutes. They are done when the heart is easily pierced with a fork.
How can I tell the artichokes are fully cooked?
The heart should be tender when pierced with a fork and the inner leaves should pull away easily. The garlic placed in the cavity should be soft and spreadable.
Can I make these ahead and how do I reheat leftovers?
Yes. Store cooled roasted artichokes in an airtight container in the fridge for 3 to 4 days. Reheat in a 350 F oven until warmed through to keep texture. Microwaving is faster but may make them a bit soggy.
What can I use instead of gluten-free breadcrumbs?
Use gluten-free panko, crushed gluten-free crackers, almond meal, or cornmeal. You can also skip crumbs and add extra seasoning and a drizzle of olive oil for flavor.
I do not have Lakeshore Shallot & Herb. What is a good substitute?
Mix shallot powder or finely minced fresh shallot with chopped chives, a pinch of crushed green peppercorn or black pepper, and a little salt. Parsley or scallion can replace some herb notes. Adjust quantities to taste.

Hi Thomas,
You can use just about any type of breadcrumbs for this recipe.
Panko breadcrumbs would be good to try for this preparation.
Why do I need gluten free breadcrumbs for the artichoke recipe?
