What do artichokes taste like?
If you’ve never had baked artichokes before, you might be a little unsure about trying this recipe. I’d describe canned artichoke hearts as slightly sweet and a little nutty, with a creamy texture. They have a pleasant, earthy flavor that is so good when paired with the other ingredients for this dip.
Ingredients for simple Baked Artichoke Dip
The ingredients for the perfect baked artichoke dip are simple, yet crucial. Here’s what you’ll need:
- 12-ounce can of artichoke hearts, drained and chopped
- ½ cup mayonnaise
- ½ cup sour cream
- 1 ¼ cups grated Parmesan cheese (divided)
- ½ teaspoon of lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 garlic clove, minced
Make sure to use high-quality ingredients to ensure the best flavor and texture. You can use fresh artichoke hearts, but canned ones are more convenient and work just as well.
How to make Artichoke Dip
