Question: how long does it take to cook an artichoke in boiling water?
Answer: Boiling method Cook in plenty of lightly salted, boiling water. It will take 15-30 mins, depending on the size and freshness of the artichoke, so check from 15 mins onwards. The best test of doneness is when a leaf from the middle pulls away easily. Drain well, upside down so the water runs out.
