  1. First of all, take care of cleaning the artichokes. Remove the external parts that are too hard, the leaves and the internal beard, and once the heart has been obtained, leave it to soak in cold water and lemon juice (you can also put whole lemons) for at least an hour and a half.
  2. At this point, take a large saucepan and heat the vinegar with the water and the salt. For the doses: always remember to use two parts of vinegar and one of water.
  3. Now boil the artichokes for about 5 minutes and when they are ready, let them cool upside down on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  4. At this point , fill the jars with the artichokes divided in half or whole, seed oil to the brim and, if you like, also garlic and pepper. Before doing so, make sure you have sterilized the jars properly, and only then compose the preserves.
