1 tsp fresh flat-leaf parsley, finely chopped (optional)

Instructions

1
Trim the artichokes: cut off the top 1 inch of each artichoke with a sharp knife, snip the sharp tips from the outer leaves with kitchen scissors, and trim the stem to about 1 inch. Rub all cut surfaces immediately with one of the lemon halves to prevent browning.
2
Pour the water into a large pot and add the turmeric, ginger, smashed garlic, black pepper, salt, and the squeezed lemon halves. Set a steamer basket inside the pot — the water level should sit just below the basket. Bring to a boil over high heat.
