By the time artichokes get to Luxembourg they are old and tough. Alas I'm never in Italy at the right season to try them. When I cook them though, I stuff them right to the outer leaves and test to see if they are done by pulling a leaf off the outside. If it comes off easily, they are ready. Sounds delicious.

You can also boil them before you cut them, but that takes at least twice as long to boil, *and* I find it more difficult to tell when they're mostly tender as I'm no expert artichoke boiler. Shh...P's mom likes to clean and boil them for us, so about half the time, we're already halfway there....
