Ingredients

  • 1 artichoke
  • 2 ounces brie cheese
  • 1 tablespoon chopped shallot
  • 4 ounces white wine
  • 8 ounces butter (1/4 slices)
  • 2 ounces whole grain mustard
  • 1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
  • 1 lemon, juice of
  • salt and pepper

Method

  • Cut off the top and bottom of the artichoke. Cook it in boiling water for 10-15 minutes until the bottom is easy to pierce with a fork. Run artichoke under cold water to stop the cooking process. When cool enough to handle, cut the inner choke away from the heart. Cut the brie into 1/2" chunks. Place the brie into the artichoke and throughout the leaves. Place on a cookie sheet and bake at 350° until the brie is melted (approximately 10 minutes).
  • To make the mustard sauce, combine shallots and white wine in a saucepan over high heat. Slowly add the butter and remove from heat. Then add mustard, white wine vinegar, salt, pepper and a squeeze of lemon juice to the mixture. Drizzle mixture over artichoke and serve.
