Artichokes with White Sauce
- Artichokes
- Salt
- 1 1/2 ounces butter
- 1 Tbsp flour
- 1/2 pint boiling water
- White pepper
- Salt
- 2 egg yolks
- 4 Tbsps lemon juice
Wash the artichokes well. Peel and shape them to a uniform size. Put in boiling salted water and let boil for 15-20 minutes (be patient, you rascal). Drain thoroughly at once. Put on a dish and serve proudly with the sauce poured over them.
To make the sauce, melt the butter with the flour in a saucepan. Add boiling water, white pepper and salt to taste. Stir constantly until the sauce thickens. Remove from the fire. Slowly stir in the egg yolks beaten up with lemon juice.
