We have a `mytheme.theme` file that has a `mytheme_preprocess_node(&$variables)` function. Within this preprocess hook, we would like to remove all HTML tags within a formatted (long) field. The goal is to do without using `striptags` within the `node--page.html.twig` template.

**How can we do this securely without using `striptags` in a `twig` template?** 

Here is what we tried, but cannot find how to do it using `mytheme_preprocess_node` hook. 

`mytheme.theme`

    function mytheme_preprocess_node(&$variables) {
    
      $node = $variables['node'];
      $field_value = $node->get('body')->first()->getValue()['value'];
      ksm($field_value);
      // cannot find way to remove `html` tags

      $variables['field_value'] = $field_value;
    }

node--page.html.twig

    {{ field_value }}

output of `ksm($field_value)`

    "& lt;p & gt;When looking at & lt;a href="https://www.example.com/some-path/"& gt;article trends& lt;/a& gt; over time, attacks are cyclical in nature. Attackers develop new attack types and vectors, which are used to launch a new wave of attacks. As defenders become more proficient in stopping these new attacks, the attackers develop new types of attacks and the cycle repeats itself.</p& gt;

In order to properly display the output, I had to a space between `&` and `lt` characters above because StackExchange will convert those to proper tags. Within the `ksm` statement there is no space.
