Instructions: Cut off and discard the stems of the artichokes with a serrated knife and rub the artichoke bottoms with some of the lemon juice. Place in a steamer and steam the artichokes for 40 to 50 minutes, or until the bottoms are tender when pierced with a knife. Plunge them into a bowl of ice and cold water to stop the cooking. Drain the artichokes well.
