I had a friend as a child whose father actually woke them up with the sound of his farts after he ate them FROM A TOTALLY DIFFERENT ROOM.
It was legendary.
Good luck with that dish.

A Modern Mother

I hate to think... our girls had a few "bottom burps" after the soup... poor cherubs...

Vegemitevix

thanks for posting this recipe! My daughter's junior school gave out some Jerusalem artichokes for Harvest festival celebrations, and I didn't know what to do with them. I roasted them. I didn't realise that they were akin to baked beans in the ozone depleting gas stakes! LOL!

A Modern Mother

Vege -- consider yourself warned...

Jennysnail

One of our neighbours grows these (he likes them as the plants are tall and make a wind break) and every couple of years gives us a carrier bag. They are the most horrible and pointless vegetable ever! Not only are they all nobbly and difficult to peel they have absolutely no taste. They're not too bad sliced up in a stir fry (a bit like water chestnuts) but I really hope he doesn't give us any this year.

Have I mentioned I am green with envy on your veg patch? I don't even manage to shop veg in time to make dinner. Or when I do, it tends to develop this little white fur in the veg drawer in my fridge. How do you do it?? I know, you don't know either.

I adore JAs and look forward with anticipation to the season each year. They are great with watercress as a soup (lessens the effect somehow) and this recipe: http://www.sacredearth.com/ethnobotany/foraging/Sunchokes.php (top left) by JO is scrummy!

A Modern Mother

Jenny-- that's too funny, I just gave a bunch of ours away and I wonder if they think the same thing!

Met--I admit to having a bit of help (our gardener)

Kat -- thanks for the recipe, will try it.

Potty Mummy

I love jerusalem artichoke soup, but the after-effects, oh my... Why didn't you stop him? Reminds me of that old 'Allo Allo episode when they go into the grandmother's bedroom and Rene's wife screams "Do not light ze candle until you 'ave opened ze window!"

A Modern Mother

Potty -- I have no idea why I didn't stop him. I even encouraged him. It's mummy rot I tell you.

TooManyHats

I've never had Jerusalem artichokes and perhaps I will pass if ever offered some.
