1. Steam them from 45 min to 1 hour then make a dipping sauce of "real'
butter, fresh lemon juice, a little garlic and bread crumbs.

2. Cut the stem (bottom) so they sit flat. Clip the leaf tops. If you
are comfortable remove the choke or not. Make a 50/50 mixture of fresh
Italian cheese & breadcrumbs with as much garlic as you can stand. Stuff
the mixture between the leafs & seam as above.

If you don't have a Steamer that big you can easily make one by placing a
colander on top of a Dutch oven 1/2 filled with water and cover with the
Dutch oven lid or foil.
