Remarks
Raw artichokes usually turn brown (oxidise) very rapidly, so you need to protect them from the air as soon as they are peeled. That is why we plunge them in water with lemon juice in this recipe. Later, they are mixed with the dressing quickly.

For a more leomny flavour, grate a little zest over the bowl.
And to drink?
A chilled rosé from Provence, or any rosé made with cabernet franc would go well.
Keeping: 1 day in the fridge, covered with plastic film.
