Sunchokes: Baked in Skins-A Taste of Hearth Cooking

Sunchokes (Jerusalem artichokes) baked in their skins in embers become very similar to a potato baked with a mild taste of artichoke hearts.

      You and so many other people. Even though it is a native plant, it is very rare that I see them growing in the wild and I have never found them in any farmer’s market. I keep a controlled bed of Jerusalem artichokes so I have them to harvest in the early spring and fall.

      Hi Anita, I just googled the words Jerusalem artichoke tubers and there were many options. If you can wait until spring and live within mailing distance, I will have many tubers to share at that time. The only cost would be the shipping to where you are. Let me know.
