Violet artichokes are a specialty from the Venetian Lagoon region, a unique landscape between the mainland and the sea. It is especially the plant’s very first buds, the delicate 'castraure', that merchants can’t seem to get enough of. In fact, they are so popular among Venetians that it’s rare to find them outside of local markets. Thanks to their high cyarine content, this vegetable is also used as a natural remedy.
