Baby Artichoke and Linzer Delicatesse 💜🥔

Baby Artichoke💜

This purple artichoke of Provence is also known as “poivrade” when it’s smaller. These excellent baby violet artichokes are simply smaller, younger versions of regular artichokes. They can be found in southern Italy, Spain, and France.

They have a conical shape and delicate violet-tinged leaves, making them the most unique as well. Because of their delicate leaves, baby artichokes are simpler to cook and consume whole. When compared to mature artichokes, their flavour is softer and slightly sweeter, with a more delicate bite and a less fibrous texture

They add a wonderful texture to pasta recipes and are excellent as an appetiser or side dish. They can be fried in olive oil, steamed, stuffed, braised, or cooked in cream and served hot or cold.

Linzer Delicatesse🥔

The Linzer delicatesse potato variety, marketed under the Délicatesse brand, has been grown for fifteen years by HDC Lamotte, a French firm situated in the Drôme department.

The potato is tougher than a floury potato but softer than a typical salad variety. It features firm yellow flesh, thin, delicate skin, and a texture that is halfway between waxy and melting.

The simplest way to cook them is to simmer them skin-on, let them rest, and then serve them warm with butter, salt, and herbs. Délicatesse is also paired well with fish, shellfish, and other dishes where you would traditionally use potatoes.
