Grilled Artichokes in Oil Organic

What is in the jar?

Artichokes at 56%, sunflower oil, extra virgin olive oil, salt, garlic, wine vinegar, parsley, basil and chilli, every agricultural ingredient being organic. Kazidomi flags possible traces of milk, nuts, lupin and soya in this 190 g jar, which matters for anyone managing one of those allergies.

Grilled artichokes or sun-dried tomatoes in oil?

Same Italian producer, same 190 g jar, two different vegetables. The Kazidomi artichokes are smoky and vegetal, cut with garlic and chilli, and hold their shape on a board. The sun-dried tomatoes are sweeter and sharper, softer to the bite, and carry capers and oregano instead. Antipasti either way.

How do I serve them?

Drained, as antipasti with drinks, on a bruschetta with ricotta, in a rocket salad, on a pizza or in an omelette. The Kazidomi grilled artichokes are already seasoned, so there is no need to salt them. Keep the oil from the jar, scented with garlic and herbs, to build a dressing.

How long do they keep once opened?

Ten days in the fridge, in the closed jar. Make sure the Kazidomi artichokes stay covered by the oil: a piece left sticking out oxidises and dries. Before opening, the jar simply sits somewhere cool and dry, out of the light, like any other preserve.

Where do these artichokes come from?

Southern Italy, from a family producer who has farmed organically since 1999 and works his own land. The artichokes are grilled and then packed into the jar with the aromatics, which is where the smoky taste comes from. Kazidomi sells them in a 190 g jar, drained before use.
