Directions:

Arrange the artichokes in a steamer basket set over at least 3 cups of water and steam, covered, until the leaves can be easily removed, about 1 hour. About halfway through cooking check the water level and add more, if necessary.
Let cool.
In a small bowl, stir together saffron and the tablespoon of boiling water.
Toast the almonds in a small dry skillet over medium-high heat until beginning to brown, about 2 minutes.
Remove the almonds and add 1 tablespoon of the oil to the pan.
Add onion and cook until beginning to brown, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Transfer to a bowl and let cool.
In a food processor, grind the almonds until finely chopped. Add the saffron mixture, onion mixture, yogurt and parsley and puree until smooth.
Transfer to a bowl and stir in the lemon juice and remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper.
Serve with the artichokes.
