Stuffed Artichokes

Carciofi ripieni

A true classic of Molise tradition! A simple, flavorful dish perfect for bringing the warmth of our cuisine to the table.

Ingredients for about 6 people

  • 6 large artichokes

  • 400 g stale bread

  • 1 egg

  • 4 tablespoons Parmesan cheese

  • 1 medium scamorza cheese

  • 1 cured sausage

  • Colavita Extra Virgin Olive Oil

  • Salt

  • Pepper

  • 1 clove of garlic

  • Pennyroyal (or mint)

Clean the artichokes and cut the stems into small pieces. In a bowl, combine the stems, stale bread, egg, Parmesan, diced scamorza, and diced sausage. Add a drizzle of olive oil, salt, and pepper.


Flatten the heart of each artichoke on a surface to open up the leaves and stuff with the prepared mixture.


Place the artichokes upright in a pan so they remain standing. Add olive oil, garlic, pennyroyal, and enough water to cover all but about one finger of the artichokes.


Drizzle a little extra oil over the exposed part, cover, and cook over medium heat for about 30 minutes.
