## Tips

- You can toast the bread slices in a pan or in the oven.
- Peel the artichoke stems with a knife or vegetable peeler.
- The discarded artichoke leaves can be toasted in the oven at 180°C until browned and used to make a herbal tea.
- Most goat cheeses on the market are made with cow's milk; use those if you prefer their flavor.
- Optionally add a splash of white wine to the pan when cooking the artichokes, though it is not strictly necessary for them to remain crispy.
