Beautiful and rare, these baby purple artichokes hail from a tiny family farm—the only one selling them in North America. Cook them in a way that showcases their color: Cut off the outer, tougher leaves, thinly slice the tender inner leaves and heart, and sauté them in butter for a few minutes to garnish seared scallops. Preparing them is a snap: Unlike many artichokes, these are spike-free.

Here's what you get:

  • 3 pounds of purple artichokes (about 15-20)
Additional Information

Co-founder Tyler Gray began his foraging career as a child while gathering brambleberries (and escaping bears) in the forests of British Columbia. Throughout his many early adventures—which include diamond mining and driftwood scavenging—his passion for food foraging never waned. He's now the trusted forager for the country's top chefs.

Why We Love It

Mikuni Wild Harvest goes out of its way to find rare products from small and family-owned business all over North America. We love their finger limes, porcini mushrooms, and of course those Daniel Boulud favorites, basil-fed snails. As for these purple artichokes, they’re so beautiful. There is something magical about their color that will make an emerald hued soup. Their texture is super-tender, the taste is almost sweet, and when sautéed in butter or olive oil, they’re divine.
