Method
1
Prepare the artichokes by removing tough outer leaves and trimming the tops. Submerge in water with lemon juice to prevent browning.

In a large pot, bring water to a boil and add baking soda. Once boiling, add the artichokes and cook until tender, about 15-20 minutes. Drain and let cool.
3
While the artichokes are cooking, toss sliced apples with lemon juice to prevent browning.
4
Slice the cooled artichokes into pieces.
5
In a large bowl, combine sliced apples and artichokes. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
6
Toss gently to mix and garnish with herbs if desired. Serve immediately or chilled.
