Hi everyone , does anyone know where I can buy globe artichokes here in the uk maybe online? I'm dying to have some Sad I think ocado or waitrose sells them but you have to order at least 50£ worth of shopping ... Any other ideas?

at this time of year, v v unlikely as they only fruit in the summer

dead easy to grow though and rather fun plants

What are you planning to do with them? You can get them in tins pretty easily, or the baby ones in oil in the deli section.

ooh, yes, the tinned hearts are great in hot salads or spanish omelette

the real things (dip each leaf in butter etc) is very much a summer meal )

I know quite few recipes... planning to make artichoke soup , artichoke purée next to steak, and also Stuffed artichokes . The leaf dipping in olive oil and vinegar is mouth watering too . I will try to grow it in the summer ... Meanwhile I have to find a nearby waitrose which is near impossible .
