Fresh gourmet dishes made with Jerusalem Artichokes are a real treat. You must make sure that your Jerusalem Artichokes are firm, not spongy. Try to find the ones with the least “gnarls”, as these are a bit of a pain to peel. Also – remember that Jerusalem Artichokes look just like raw ginger roots. Make sure you don’t end up with a pound or two of ginger! You would have a hard time using that up! These also go by the name “sunchokes”, so if you see a sign for those in your produce market, you have found what you are looking for.
