(As per part of your question) http://italianfood.about.com/library/rec/blr0327.htm Relative to the Artichoke, cardoon stalks can be eaten raw, fried, pureed or boiled in my experience. Oooh... And this website will be perfect for your growing question: http://www.kitchengardenseeds.com/cgi-bin/catview.cgi?_fn=Product&_category=116 Good Luck!
