Ingredients

  1. Artichokes (as many as you can fit in the pot)
  2. 1.5 cwater (for 6 qt, 2.5 c for 8 qt, 1 cup for 3 qt)
  3. (optional) Aromatics to Add to the Water
  4. 1/2Lemon, sliced
  5. 2 clovesGarlic, chopped
  6. 2small Bay Leaves
  7. 1 tspSalt
  8. 1/2Sweet Onion, sliced
  9. 1 sprigFresh Rosemary

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Artichokes: Remove small outer leaves that are dry, and cut the stem off, leaving about 1/4". Then use a really sharp serrated knife to cut the top inch or two off of the artichoke. This exposes the inside and will allow the steam to penetrate it.

    Rinse the artichokes and pat dry with a paper towel. Then rub some lemon on the cut surface to prevent browning.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Steaming Liquid: Add the water to the stainless inner liner. Then add the aromatics, optional, (garlic, bay leaves, lemon slices, salt, onion, and rosemary).

    Place the trivet/rack into the pot.

  3. 3

    Place the artichokes into the pot, stem side up (cut side down). Close the lid and set the steam release knob to the Sealing position.

  4. 4

    Press the Pressure Cook/Manual Button or dial, then the + or - button or dial to select the cook time (cook times may vary*):

    Small artichokes - 10 minutes
    Medium Artichokes - 15 minutes
    Large artichokes - 25 minutes

  5. 5

    When the cooking cycle is finished, do a Quick Release of the steam/pressure by turning the steam release knob to the Venting position, or pushing the release button, if applicable (If you like softer artichokes, let the pot naturally release the pressure).

  6. 6

    You can tell when the artichoke is done when a knife slides into the bottom easily.
