There’s a special kind of joy that comes with opening your London Veg Box each week. It’s a direct link to the season, a beautiful collection of the best produce our local farmers have to offer. But we know that excitement can sometimes be followed by a familiar question: "What on earth do I make with kohl rabi?"
For years, we’ve shared recipes on our blog and swapped ideas in our community, but we’ve always dreamed of doing more. We wanted to give each of you a personal guide, a source of inspiration that knows exactly what’s in your box and understands what you’re in the mood for.
Today, that idea becomes a reality. We’re excited to introduce Artichoke Intelligence, your personal culinary mentor.
What is Artichoke Intelligence?
Think of Artichoke Intelligence as a new kind of chef, one created exclusively for you. It’s powered by some very clever technology, but it’s been trained with the heart and soul of our kitchen. We've poured in hours of culinary knowledge, teaching it about flavour pairings, classic techniques, and our deep-rooted, root-to-leaf philosophy.
The result is a tool that doesn’t just give you a random recipe; it collaborates with you to create the perfect dish for that exact moment.
How It Works
We designed the experience to be as simple and intuitive as possible:
- Introduce Yourself: Simply tell Artichoke Intelligence your name. It will instantly and securely access your provisions for the week, taking note of your favourites and any ingredients you’ve asked us to exclude.
- Answer the Brief: It will then ask a few simple questions a real chef would: What’s the occasion? How much time do you have? What flavours are you fancying?
- Get Your Bespoke Seasonal Recipes: Based on your answers, it will architect a unique recipe just for you, explaining not just the steps but the why behind the techniques.
Artichoke Intelligence is your partner in the kitchen. It’s there to help you reduce food waste, try new things with confidence, and get the absolute most from your beautiful produce. Whether you’re a seasoned cook looking for a spark of creativity or a beginner wondering where to start, it’s designed to help you fall even more in love with seasonal cooking.
