In the book of genesis, 3:18, it is written, “thorns and thistles shall the earth bring forth for you”. Rashi, the Bible and Talmud commentator from Medieval troyes, France, Tells us that this refers to the wild artichokes of ancient Israel. This is perhaps why Jews throughout Europe and the middle east enjoyed artichokes before the rest of their surrounding communities. This is truly a dish of the Moroccan countryside in spring.
