French Artichokes, Fried
- Artichoke heads
- Salt
- Vinegar
- 3 eggs
- 2 tablespoons of salad oil
- 2 tablespoons of flour

Wash and trim the artichoke heads, and cut them into thin slices; place in cold water with a little salt and vinegar added; this should be done 15 or 20 minutes before frying them. Drain, and wipe them dry; make a batter with 3 eggs, 2 tablespoons of salad oil, and 2 tablespoons of flour, seasoned with pepper and salt; mix the sliced artichoke thoroughly with the batter, then fry in hot fat, being careful that the artichoke is cooked through as well as browned.
