Notes
- Make it in advance - you can prepare the artichoke topping and store it in the fridge for up to 4-5 days in advance.
- Serve in a bowl as a dip - if you're making various toppings for a party you can serve the artichokes as a dip in a bowl and let guests spoon it onto bread or crackers themselves.
- Mix with pasta or salad - this is also delicious served as a pasta 'sauce or pesto' like in our Artichoke Pasta with Peas recipe. You can also mix it cold through a salad or pasta salads.
- Storage - The artichoke topping will last up to 5 days in the fridge.
