ARTICHOKE SOUP 

2 cups artichoke pulp
2 cups chicken stock
milk or cream
salt and pepper

Prepare artichokes according (see note below).  Cook pulp and
chicken stock together; add milk or cream until thinned to the
desired consistency and season with salt and pepper to taste.  This
is good either chilled or hot.  Serves 4.

Cook the artichokes.  Scrape the fleshy part from the base of the
leaves with a knife and rub the bottoms through a sieve or food
mill.  Pulp may also be made by putting pre-cooked hearts in a
blender, at high speed for approximately 30 seconds.  Six large
artichokes will make about 1 1/2 cups of pulp.
