The globe artichoke is a large, edible thistle with a bulbous flower head. The head is composed of many tightly packed leaves, called bracts, which are green or purple in color. The bracts are actually modified leaves that protect the flower's delicate inner florets. The artichoke's flavor is often described as nutty, earthy, and slightly sweet.
Features:
- Globe artichokes have a nutty, earthy, and slightly sweet flavor. The flavor is more intense in the heart of the artichoke, which is made up of the immature florets.
