1 lemon
4 globe artichokes (12 ounces each)
3/4 cup plain Greek-style yogurt (2 percent)
1 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest, and 1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon finely minced fresh tarragon
1 tablespoon finely minced fresh flat-leaf parsley
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
(makes 1 cup)
2 garlic cloves
1 large egg yolk
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
3/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon sweet paprika
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon hot sauce, such as Tabasco

1
Prepare a bowl of water large enough to hold all of the artichokes.
2
Peel 1 lemon with a vegetable peeler, then cut in half and squeeze the juice into the bowl.
3
Remove any tough outer leaves from artichokes.
4
Working with one artichoke at a time, use a serrated knife to cut off the top quarter of each.
5
Use kitchen shears to trim sharp tips of the leaves.
6
Remove any small leaves from bottom and trim stem just enough that artichoke can stand upright; place in lemon water to keep it from turning brown while repeating with remaining artichokes.
7
Fill a large pot with 2 inches of water; set a steamer basket (or colander) inside pot, and bring water to a boil.
8
Place the lemon peel and artichokes, stem ends down, in basket.
9
Cover and steam until bases of artichokes are easily pierced with the tip of a sharp knife, about 20 minutes.
10
When cool enough to handle, use a small spoon to scoop out center cone; scrape out purple leaves and fuzzy choke.
11
Serve artichokes with dipping sauces, as desired
12
Mix together yogurt, lemon zest and juice, tarragon, parsley, and 1 teaspoon salt; season with pepper.
13
Bring 1 inch of water to a boil in a small saucepan.
14
Blanch garlic until tender, 3 to 5 minutes; drain and mash garlic into a paste.
15
Whisk together garlic, egg yolk, mustard, and lemon juice in a bowl.
16
Slowly whisk in oil until emulsified.
17
Whisk in paprika, cayenne, hot sauce, and 1 teaspoon salt; season with pepper.
