Artichokes Recipe

Artichokes should be laid about six hours in a very strong brine of salt

and water. Then put them into a pot of boiling water, and boil them till

you can draw the leaves from the bottom, which must be cut smooth and

clean, and put into a pot, with whole black pepper, salt, cloves, mace,

bay-leaves, and as much white wine vinegar as will cover them. Lastly,

pour upon them melted butter an inch thick, and cover them down close.

When you take out any for use, put them into boiling water, with a piece

of butter to plump them, and you may use them for whatever you please.
