Artichokes are a variety of the species of thistle, with the edible portion of the plant consisting of the flower buds before the flowers come into bloom. Historians believe that the artichoke may have originated in Sicily and thus Italy is one of the biggest producers of artichokes in the world. Italians grow up with various artichoke dishes or just having them as snacks. Artichokes rank among the most antioxidant-rich of all vegetables and are low in fat, high in fiber, and loaded with vitamins and minerals such as vitamin C, vitamin k, folate, phosphorus, and magnesium.
