Ingredients for Steamed Artichokes with Salsa Verde

• 1/2 cucharaditas de semillas de hinojo

• 1/2 taza de hojas de perejil italiano fresco

• 2 tablespoons drained capers, rinsed

• 3 tablespoons chopped shallot

• 2 dientes de ajo, picados en trozos grandes

• 1 1/2 tablespoons fresh tarragon leaves

• 1 anchovy fillet

• Pizca de pimienta roja triturada seca

• 120ml de aceite de oliva virgen extra

• 2 tablespoons whipping cream

• 2 teaspoons Sherry wine vinegar

• 4 medium globe artichokes

• 1/2 limón

Heat small skillet over medium heat. Add fennel seeds and toast until aromatic and beginning to darken, about 2 minutes. Transfer seeds to processor. Add parsley, capers, shallot, garlic, tarragon, anchovy, and crushed red pepper to processor. Puree until coarse paste forms, scraping down sides occasionally. Transfer to medium bowl. Whisk in oil, cream, and vinegar. Season with salt and pepper. DO AHEAD Salsa verde can be made 2 hours ahead. Let stand at room temperature.

Lay 1 artichoke on its side and cut off top third; cut off stem at base of artichoke. Using scissors, cut top 1/2 inch off each remaining leaf. Rub all cut surfaces with lemon, squeezing slightly to release juice. Repeat with remaining artichokes.

Place rack on bottom of large pot. Add enough water just to touch rack. Bring to boil. Place artichokes on rack in pot. Reduce heat to medium, cover, and steam artichokes until tender, adding more water if necessary, about 30 minutes.

Transfer 1 artichoke to each of 4 plates. Cool 10 minutes. Divide salsa verde among 4 small bowls and serve alongside artichokes.
