Once steamed, the outer leaves can easily be pulled off. One by one, you take a leaf, dip it in garlic butter (or your dip of choice) and slide it through your teeth, pulling off the inner meaty portion as you go. Discard the petal. Continue doing this with all the outer leaves. Once you get to the artichoke heart, remove the hair and discard, but enjoy the heart. Some people claim it's the best part!
