Let’s get to the heart of the issue—or, rather, the bottom of the issue: we love an artichoke heart, here at CuratedCravings™. They add a nice, mild and tender element to everything from salads, to pastas, to pizzas, and everything in between. Did you know, though, that if you take a whole artichoke heart and remove all the small, soft leaves from the top, you’re left with a naturally bowl-shaped Artichoke Bottom? And furthermore, did you know that CuratedCravings™ Artichoke Bottoms have the same delicately nutty flavor and buttery mouthfeel as a fresh artichoke heart, can be used in all the same culinary contexts as artichoke hearts, and also make fun, flavorful, edible vessels for seafood, salads, and more? Well, now you do! So here’s how we suggest you apply that knowledge: let our pre-trimmed, pre-cooked Artichoke Bottoms thaw in the fridge overnight, then use them to serve scoops of Wine Country Chicken Salad the next time you have folks over for a get-together. Or, if you’d prefer something warm, fill them with a bit of our Artichoke & Jalapeño Dip and top with your favorite shredded cheese, and bake until bubbly and warm. And if you, like us, simply can’t get enough artichoke flavor in your pastas, salads, and sandwiches, these Artichoke Bottoms are a great option, whether you slice them, dice them, or enjoy them whole.
