Artichokes grow from winter crops, and FRAMORE hand-picks their crop right at the close of the season when the plant reaches peak size and softness. They are then trimmed, cooked whole, and sealed in oil hours after picking to preserve freshness. Ready to serve, you can chop them up and cook them to add to rice or pasta, or put them in a delicious pasta sauce or dipping sauce. Full of fiber, vitamins, and antioxidants, these scrumptious artichokes are the perfect addition to your next meal.
