Artichoke salad is an authentic Italian recipe made with shaved raw artichokes, shaved parmesan, walnuts and a lemon dressing. Ideal for a side dish, elegant appetizers for guests or quick and light lunch.
First, clean the artichokes. After cleaning the artichokes, place them in the lemon water.
Prepare all the remaining ingredients. Grate the parmesan, break the walnuts and prepare the dressing with EVOO, lemon juice, salt and pepper. Chop the parsley.
Now slice all the artichokes into thin slices (see notes).
Take a serving plate, place the artichokes, parmesan and walnuts on it, drizzle everything with the vinaigrette and sprinkle with parsley. Your artichoke salad is ready: serve it and MANGIA!
Notes
I usually use a knife, but for best results, use a potato peeler as it will make them thin and tender.
