The artichoke has Arab origins. The artichoke is native to the Mediterranean coast, probably from Sicily or Egypt or the Canary Islands. According to mythology, it is said that the god Jupiter fell in love with Cynara, a beautiful blonde girl (ash blonde), who rejected him. To spite her, he decided to transform her into Cynara Scolymus: the artichoke. It is known that the Romans and Greeks already consumed it, but it was thanks to Catherine de' Medici, who loved them, that it was introduced into the Italian court during the Middle Ages. Despite the belief that the artichoke was aphrodisiac and should not be consumed, she continued to do so and convinced the doctors to accept it. At that time, it was very expensive and considered a food for the wealthy. In America, the artichoke was introduced by the French in Louisiana and by the Spanish in California. It also spread to Chile and the Argentine Pampas. Artichokes belong to the Asteraceae or Composite family and the genus Cynara. They require a warm climate and are a seasonal plant (biennial and triennial). They can grow up to 1-1.5 meters tall. They grow in deep, warm, calcareous, and rich soils. |
