  3. Then, using a pair of sharp kitchen shears, cut off the top portion of each leaf to remove the thorns.
  4. Using a peeler, peel away the first layer of skin on the artichoke stem and tear off any small or dead leaves.
  5. Proceed to boiling method.
  6. Boiling method:
  7. Fill a stock pot with water and a large pinch of kosher salt and bring to a boil.
  8. Squeeze the juice from the lemon halves into the water, followed by the lemon halves themselves.
  9. Carefully place the artichoke in the water.
  10. Reduce heat to low and simmer, covered, for about 20 to 30 minutes, or until you can easily pull out a leaf from the center of the artichoke. Discard the leftover lemon halves.
