One of our Artichoke Aficionado members, Jennifer, submitted a fantastic menu, created by her father Syd, that includes delicious Artichoke dip recipes. Jennifer and her family enjoyed the food at a picnic held at Syd’s rustic cabin in Maine. Steve Brown, an extraordinary chef from Beaufort, S.C., joined Syd in the kitchen – preparing a South Carolina “Low Country Boil.” The menu included other traditional Southern items as well as regional ingredients from Maine and fresh Ocean Mist Farms Artichokes from California. Artichokes are perfect for picnics because they can be cooked ahead, eaten at room temperature, and are versatile for serving in halves or quarters for multiple guests.

Syd and Chef Steve’s Menu:

  • Artichokes steamed, served with a choice of two dipping sauces
  • South Carolina “Low Country Boil,” a traditional dish of shrimp, potato, corn and sausage.
  • Maine lobsters
  • New York Cut strip steaks with roasted potatoes
  • Blueberry crumble - in season
  • Strawberry pie - in season
  • Ice cream
  • Sparkling wine

Steve served the dipping sauces in two large, hollowed-out Artichokes. Learn how to create your own edible Artichoke bowl by watching our Artichoke Serving Tips video
