Artichoke hearts

Mild, slightly tangy, and tender, with a subtle earthy note from the artichoke itself.

Lens analyzed

Canned artichoke hearts are the tender inner portion of the artichoke, packed in water, oil, or brine after the tough outer leaves and fibrous choke are removed. They come ready to eat straight from the can or jar, needing only a rinse and a chop.

Where it comes from

Canning let artichokes travel and store far beyond their short fresh season, and canned or jarred hearts became a common pantry shortcut once fresh artichoke preparation — which takes real trimming work — proved too fussy for everyday cooking.

Buying it

Water-packed hearts are more neutral and versatile; oil-packed or marinated versions bring their own seasoning, which is worth checking before adding more to a recipe. Quartered hearts hold their shape better than more broken-up pieces sometimes sold cheaper.

Storing it

An unopened can keeps in the pantry for a long stretch. Once opened, transfer any leftover hearts and their liquid to a sealed container in the fridge and use within a few days.

Keeps about 2 years in the pantry.
