Do baby artichokes have an inedible "choke"?

Hi Janet--

  I made a few baby artichoke recipes from Issue 104, including that Fritatta with taleggio cheese (really good) and found you do not have to remove any choke from the baby artichokes.

P.S. What are you making?  Here is the fritatta:

I didn't have a recipe in mind. I was cruising the produce section and bought the artichokes on impulse, but I'm going to try the frittata. Thanks!

Great recipe! The local grocery store did not have taleggio, so I substituted fontina. Nice to have a different vegetable for dinner. Thanks for the link.

Hi Janet, I am glad you enjoyed it! That is one of my favorites from the Cook the Issue contest so far.
