While there are all kinds of opportunities to include artichokes in dishes, artichoke lovers seem to agree that nothing beats sliding the freshly steamed leaves—dipped in all manner of sauces— through your teeth, one at a time. Talk about the ultimate slow food! Of course, if you enjoy artichokes you won’t pass up an opportunity to top your pizza or paella with them, either. Go ahead and indulge—they’re a good source of dietary fiber and vitamin C, and they’re low in calories and fat-free!
