Notes
- Do make sure to do a quick pressure release, otherwise the artichokes will overcook and turn to mush.
- Try and cook artichokes of the same size together so that they cook at the same rate.
- The artichoke is done when you can easily remove a petal without much pull. Test at the 25-minute mark and then test every few minutes until done.
- Do not eat the choke portion!
- Squeezing lemon juice of the prepared artichokes will slow down oxidization (aka stop them from changing color and looking unappealing).
- Without any dipping sauce, there are 0 WW Blue Plan SmartPoints in a serving.
