Mint and Shallot Poivrade Artichokes and Gnocchi (Vegetarian)
Tumblr media
These fragrant Mint and Shallot Poivrade Artichokes and Gnocchi make a beautiful, tasty and hearty lunch, and are quite easy and quick to prepare, too! Happy Monday!
Ingredients (serves 3 to 4):
1 heaped teaspoon coarse sea salt
1 large, ripe lemon
half a dozen poivrade artichokes (small purple artichokes from Provence)
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 dozens Gnocchi, cooked and drained
4 tablespoons Mint and Shallot Dressing
Parmesan
Fill a large pot to three-quarters with water, and bring to the boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, stir in coarse sea salt until dissolved.
Thoroughly squeeze lemon. Set aside. Add empty lemon halves to the pot of boiling water.
Remove hard outer leaves off the artichokes and trim their stems. Halve artichokes and, with a sharp knife, scoop out the choke (tiny hairs under the leaves). Drizzle generously with lemon juice, and proceed likewise with remaining artichokes.
Plunge artichoke halves into salted lemon boiling water, and cook, 3 to 5 minutes depending on their size. 
With a slotted spoon, lift artichoke halves out of the water, and transfer to a colander, to drain. Set aside.
In a large, deep skillet, melt butter with olive oil over medium-high heat. Add artichoke halves, cut-side down, and cook, about 5 minutes until starting to brown. 
Stir in cooked Gnocchi, and sauté, about 3 to 4 minute more, until golden brown and crispy. Drizzle with half of the Mint and Shallot Dressing, tossing well to coat. Remove from the heat.
Serve Mint and Shallot Poivrade Artichokes and Gnocchi hot, drizzled with remaining Mint and Shallot Dressing. Shave a little Parmesan on top. This dish pairs beautifully with a chilled Provence Rosé or a crisp but fruity white, like Pinot Grigio.

National Artichoke Day 
These spiky green vegetables may look intimidating, but don't be fooled! Once you get past the outer leaves, you'll find a tender and delicious heart that's worth the effort.
Have fun and be healthy on this day that celebrates this delicious vegetable that is chock full of nutrients and health benefits. It’s time for National Artichoke Day!
Classified as a vegetable, an artichoke is actually the flower bud of a thistle that has yet to grow to maturity. Grown in warm climates, in places such as California, France, and Spain, artichokes are popular in European dishes, as well as in the United States. And for those who have experienced them when prepared well, artichokes can bring a great deal of joy and flavor to a variety of dishes. Plus, they’re good for you too!
History of National Artichoke Day
It is believed that artichokes were first harvested by those living in the Middle East, the plant is likely native to the Mediterranean. In fact, some experts surmise that artichokes are one of the world’s oldest foods!
In the 1400s, artichokes became popular in Tuscany, specifically in Florence, Italy. From there, their popularity spread throughout Europe and eventually to the US, in the 1800s. They finally made it to California via Italian immigrants in the early 1900s and they became a huge hit. Today, California grows almost all of the artichokes produced in the United States.
How to Celebrate National Artichoke Day
Have a blast celebrating National Artichoke Day with some fun events and activities. Implement some of your own delightful ideas or try out some of these:
Eat Artichokes, Of Course
The most obvious and best way to enjoy National Artichoke Day is by cooking some up and eating them. Those who cook them all the time can have some fun getting creative with recipes for artichokes with a wide variety of opportunities for preparing them: baked, grilled, steamed, boiled, roasted, or even sauteed. Season with salt, pepper, lemon juice, butter and so many other options!
Fun Facts About Artichokes
Learn some delightful fun facts and bits of trivia about artichokes in honor of National Artichoke Day. Then share them with friends, family, coworkers and more! Get started with some of these:
Artichokes are technically a member of the sunflower family.
Artichoke plants don’t last long. Each plant only produces artichokes for 5-10 years.
Artichoke plants are fairly large in size. They grow to be around 6 feet wide and approximately 3-4 feet tall.
Marilyn Monroe, iconic American Actress, held the title of the inaugural “Artichoke Queen” in Castroville, California in 1948, when she was 22 years old.
Plan to Attend the Artichoke Festival
Though the festival takes place later in the year, National Artichoke Day would be a great time to make plans to attend. Taking place each year in Castroville, California, the Artichoke Festival usually falls on the first or second weekend in June. Attendees can enjoy festivities such as a charity golf tournament, children’s games and activities, live music performances, three-dimensional AgroArt competitions, dancing performances and so much more to enjoy. And everything is creatively based on the all-important theme of artichokes!

In My San Diego Garden and Kitchen
A late spring salad for a gathering of friends utilizing a glut of lettuce with additions of garden carrots, radishes and calendula petals.
Garden gifts as the mesclun lettuce and arugula finish their run.
The season of apricots begins slowly and later than usual this year. The crop appears to be significantly smaller than the 120 pound yield of 2022 but we’ll savor whatever comes.
Keeping the color theme going, I’ll insert a favorite bouquet from last week here.
The Italian purple artichokes come to an end and prepped to cook become a work of art by knife.
Small but treasured harvests.
Check the What I’m Planting Now page as I think spring in the garden. Then head to Harvest Monday, hosted by Dave at Happy Acres Blog and see what garden bloggers around the world harvested last week.

Plant of the Day
Saturday 15 July 2023
This wide range of Cynara scolymus (globe artichoke) forms were grown from seed and show how variable they can be. The edible flower buds, produced over the summer months, can differ in shape and colour. This edible, perennial plant is highly ornamental, with big, jagged, silvery leaves and tall flower stems topped with large globe-shaped buds that have purple flowers like giant thistles.

How about that forecast, Site-φ! In honor of what’s probably going to be the last blizzard of the spring (don’t hold me to that, I’m no meteorologist! :D) Site Security will be hosting a bonfire at the campground the evening of March 28th. Come get cozy before the storm hits! BYOTTB (Bring Your Own Things* To Burn). *Adhering to all regulations re: flammable substances and safe use of the communal campground, found under Hazardous Materials (Reg. F-451) and Outdoor Recreation (Regs. C-10 through -14) in the Personnel Handbook.
RSVP! →
📍 all muses are welcome to attend this open event, taking place at the on-site campground on the evening of March 28th. These threads may be written whenever you like before the act closes, so long as they are dated to that time! several bonfires will be set and maintained by site-φ security personnel from nightfall to midnight. hot chocolate and non-alcoholic cider will be available; muses are welcome to bring food and/or shredder-ready paperwork, photographs of regrets, evidence of wrongdoings, unwanted papercrafts, and disappointing research to burn. there is also an optional interactive roll for a random [𝙲𝙻𝙰𝚂𝚂𝙸𝙵𝙸𝙴𝙳] element!

Following several hospitalizations linked to the most recent serving of Frankie’s Famous Fish last month, all waivers have been destroyed and future shipments of “fish” scratched from the order. Anyone who sees or smells “fish” should report this to Site Security. Site Administration would like to stress and remind personnel not to try Frankie’s Famous Fish at the cafeteria; do not believe the rumors the dish gives you powers if you survive. If anyone has seen Frankie, inform him that the HR Department and Director Osterholz desires a meeting. Immediately.
𝑫𝒆𝒇𝒆𝒏𝒔𝒆 𝑺𝒆𝒎𝒊𝒏𝒂𝒓 & 𝑪𝒐𝒎𝒃𝒂𝒕 𝑹𝒆𝒂𝒅𝒊𝒏𝒆𝒔𝒔 𝑨𝒔𝒔𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒎𝒆𝒏𝒕
The Security Department will continue to offer self-defense and weapons handling classes. Additionally, Op.

When asked for comment, he replied: “That so?” and stated that they should “Be on time.” Requests for elaboration were met with a smile, precisely one nod, and what may have been a laugh. Additional, remedial seminars can be arranged with Captain Kato in advance of your assessment.

Lab spaces may still be booked through the Head of Research at Site-φ. Please let them know what you intend to research, and be advised that lab space is in slightly shorter than usual supply due to “a Newt-related incident.” Newt, who is a good dog, does not understand what this could be referring to. Neither does anyone else who was in the lab at the alleged time of the incident. Head of research insists that Newt “knows what he did.”
SUBMIT A REQUEST! →
📍 players are welcome to request a lab space for their researchers by contacting rp mgmt. please note that requesting a space as a themis member would immediately jump the line of the other scientists at the site. some themis researchers, depending on their prestige, may be given a full team of lab assistants to aid in their noble pursuit to secure, contain, and protect.

The Walking Club, a group of highly-intelligent pack of dogs, is looking for new members! remember — DON’T WALK ALONE. That is a formal directive, not a request. Joining the Walking Club is especially critical given the WEATHER WARNING soon to be in effect; any personnel who need to move between site buildings while the WARNING is active must contact the Walking Club. The correct way to contact the Walking Club is to step through the nearest door, close it behind you,* and whistle as loud as possible. If you are not a good whistler, that is okay! There is no such thing as a bad whistle if you put your heart into it! The Walking Club will still hear you and arrive shortly. *If Newt has chosen you as his walking buddy, you are advised to brace yourself against the door before whistling, to prevent injury.
𝑺𝒊𝒕𝒆-φ 𝑱𝒐𝒃 𝑩𝒐𝒂𝒓𝒅
The following “odd jobs,” which are in no way “odd” or “unusual,” are currently available, on an as-available, non-urgent basis, personnel schedules permitting. Consider being a Site-φ neighbor and lend a hand if you can!

DO NOT BRING: negative energies. Seriously. Do not. For everyone's sakes. EDIT: This position has been filled.
SUPPORT ARCHIVIST posted by HEAD LIBRARIAN and ARCHIVIST Dr. W. Zai While Junior Archivist M. Leitner recovers from unwise choices as regards his seafood intake, the Site-φ archives are in need of additional hands. These hands will, ideally, be experienced in standard archival procedures.

by DIRECTOR B. Osterholz
Good evening. It has been brought to my attention that our new additions here at Site-φ may be in need of a reminder as to the appropriateness of fraternization among personnel at this highly clandestine installation. To reiterate what was stated during onboarding and in the welcome brochure: “making eyes,” “canoodling,” and/or “partaking in the horizontal tango” with fellow staff members is not allowed at Site-φ. As you all know, the nature of our work demands absolute dedication and focus. Surely any rumors of anyone engaging in such acts on-site are, indeed, no more than crass rumors to razz the newcomers.

From all of us in the 'Pataphysics Wing of Research and Development, we wish our fellow a happy birthday. WELLNESS COUNSELOR J. Oyuun, March 20th “The best gift you could possibly give me is to attend your mandatory wellness assessment. Anything more extravagant would, in fact, be inappropriate, given the nature of our strictly counselor-to-client relationship. But I also wouldn’t say no to more crayons or holographic stickers from that one place in Hōuston…”
