INSTRUCTIONS
To prepare cardoons: trim, peel, and cut into 4 inch batons and soak in acidulated water. Blanch cardoons in boiling salted water for 25 to 30 minutes, or until tender. Remove and refresh in ice cold water. In a large saute pan, heat oil until just smoking. Add onion, cook until light golden brown, about 9 to 10 minutes. Add garlic and cook 2 minutes. Add tomatoes, cove and flour and stir to mix well. Add stock and blanched cardoons and bring to a boil. Lower heat and cook 15 minutes until sauce clings to cardoons. Add herbs, check for seasoning and serve. Yield: 4 servings NOTES : Recipes Copyright Mario Batali 1997. All rights reserved.

A Message from our Provider:
“We need to discover all over again that worship is natural to the Christian, as it was to the godly Israelites who wrote the psalms, and that the habit of celebrating the greatness and graciousness of God yields an endless flow of thankfulness, joy, and zeal. #J.I. Packer”
