Cardoons

Directions For Use

Wash before use. Cardoons need to be cleaned and prepared before consumption, stripping away the spines and fibbers. The spines can be quite sharp, and it is recommended to wear protective gloves to prevent colour staining, rashes, and irritation on the hands. When preparing, outer leaves should be discarded, and the fibrous strings should be peeled from the stalks, also removing the spines found along the edges. As the stalks are being stripped and chopped, the pieces should be kept in acidulated water to avoid discoloration. Cardoon stalks are typically parboiled to remove their bitter flavour and are steamed, sautéed, boiled, baked, deep-fried, or braised.

Storage Instructions

Store in a plastic bag in the crisper drawer of the refrigerator.
