I bargain canned Artichoke hearts, un-marinated and in dampen. There are many open in the shops, so hold a look in your neighboring shops and consider it what’s open to you. Many of the canned or jarred artichoke’s now are either in grease, or marinated in a flavored grease, which doesn’t occupation very well in this salad, so give somebody no option but to solid you look pro the hearts in dampen with nothing in addition added.

The artichokes I bargain appear as unbroken hearts in the can. After a quick wash, I quarter them.
