What IS a Jerusalem Artichoke, and HOW do you cook it?!

what IS it?!

what IS it?!

The excitement of the Brussels Sprouts competition has started to die down, and we can’t stand it.

So we thought we’d ask you for yet more recipes, this time for a different “unusul ingredient” – the Jerusalem Artichoke.

It looks like a daffodil bulb or a lump of ginger root, and truth be told, it has nothing to do with either Jerusalem or artichokes.

But it is deliciously nutty, and it’s in season for another couple of months.

So we’re calling all cooks.

Send a Jerusalem Artichoke recipe to claire.vandenbosch@vegbox-recipes.co.uk and we’ll test it and feature our favourite entries here on the blog, as well as in the main VegBox Recipes database, with your name all over it, of course!

To get you in the mood, check out the truth about what a Jerusalem Artichoke really is, discover its antisocial side effect, and have a look at a recipe we already feature:

Jerusalem Artichokes with Pine Nuts

This is a lovely way of serving Jerusalem artichokes. The garlic and ginger give the dish a spicy, warming feel, while the toasted pine nuts beautifully compliment the flavour of the artichokes.

Looking forward to your inspiration.
