You can ethier cook it in a preasure cooker or in a pot of water.You boil the water then drop the artichokes in. Wait about 1 hour depening on the size of it. To see if its ready poke it with a fork. If you want it softer keep it in their for about 5 minutes then poke it again.

If you mean globe artichokes, you boil the young buds in salted water for about 5 minutes and serve with melted butter. Jerusalem artichokes are tubers of a completely different species of plant. You cook them like potatoes.

Steam them-get one of those little stainless vegesteamers that open up in your deep pan-like the one you cook pasta in-steam it updide down so the heat goes up between the leaves. When done,tear off the leaves to eat one at a time. Dip in a mix of mayonaise,salt,butter (melted) and slide leaf with the dip along your teeth to pull off the inner soft part-yum! Goes great with BBQ cornish game hen-a college weekend must for friends and I, years ago-

The best way is to steam them. It tahes around 45 minutes to an hour depending on size. Cut the bottom flat so the stand.

being Italian, we stuff them. We make them similar to the recipe link below but without the bacon.
