Difficult question. How to describe a taste?

I love artichokes. You eat the bottom of one leaf, then another, gently you put them aside on another plate, like a ritual. The closer you get to the heart the sweeter the taste (it seems almost like a love line lol). Yes "vinagrette", is perfect with it. 3/4 olive oil, 1/4 vinegar, salt, I spoon mustard, a little bit of sugar and if you like it a little bit of garlic.

The taste, mhh....unique, I can't compare it with other food. Try it, it is a nice and a different experience.

Tastes like chicken.

brussel sprout without bitterness

An artichoke taste simmilar to lettuce or cabbage, I guess. It is kind of hard to describe.

=]

I would say that it tastes similar to asparagus...earthy, fresh and delicate. The artichoke heart is the best part. You should taste one sometime. I think you would enjoy it.

Artichokes don't really have too much flavor of their own. They tend to pick up the flavor of what you cook them with.

doesnt really taste like anything like brocolli sort of

I think they kind of taste like brussle sprouts, but they also tend to taste like whatever you are eating them with.

No I can't
but it is delicious
with what ever dip you use
Nothing to fixing it
Boil < < pull a leaf to test
If you like veggies you'll like it
It is in a class like asparagus.
But is a GOD compared to egg plant.

Tastes a lot like asparagus to me. They're really good if you dip the leaves in garlic butter!

To me, it is sort of bland with a bitter aftertaste. I do not like it at all.

sorry koots can't help ya i tend to avoid eating anything that has 'choke' right in it's name
