Straight from California, this appetizer is one of the coolest recipes Amber taught me. I didn’t even know I liked artichokes before this. You peel the leaves off and scrape the meat off with your teeth.

Ingredients
12 whole artichokes with stem removed
1 cup mayonnaise
2 tbsp Dijon mustard
1 tbsp lemon juice
2 tsp fresh dill
salt and pepper to taste
Directions
Stir together the mayonnaise, mustard, lemon juice and dried dill in a small mixing bowl and set covered in the refrigerator.
Next, place the artichokes on a steam rack in a pressure cooker. Fill with enough water so that it is just below the steam rack level. For average-sized artichokes, pressure cook them for 18 minutes; if larger, cook longer.
Remove artichokes and place on individual serving plates with the dipping sauce on the side. Garnish with lemon.
