Reserve.

Stage 3 - ⌛ 15 min.

Remarks

Depending on the size of your artichokes, you may well have filling left over that will not fit in the hearts. This can be frozen and used another time, or for original vol-au-vents.

Keeping: Several days in the fridge, covered with plastic film. Reheats very well..
