Today's episode, "ARTICHOKE TUTORIAL,"
Cooking artichokes can intimidate some people, especially if they're unfamiliar with the vegetable or have never prepared it. Artichokes have a unique appearance and can seem daunting due to their prickly exterior and the need to remove tough outer leaves and the choke (inedible fuzzy part) before cooking.
Artichokes are primarily grown in California. The coastal regions of California, particularly around Monterey County, Castroville, and the Central Coast, have the ideal climate for cultivating artichokes. The rich soil, moderate temperatures, and coastal fog create favorable conditions for artichoke cultivation.
Castroville, California, is often referred to as the "Artichoke Capital of the World" due to its significant production of this vegetable. Some artichokes are also grown in smaller quantities in other states, such as Arizona and Texas. However, California remains the primary producer of artichokes in the USA.
