Jerusalem artichokes are not always easy to find in normal grocery stores, however in the spring or fall time they are available in heath food stores.
I like to precook them alone with a pinch of hing to release some of their gas forming properties. Their sweet taste and their light potato texture will conquer your delicate palate.
High in potassium and low in sodium, Jerusalem artichokes help regulate bowel movements. You can also eat Jerusalem artichokes freshly picked and raw, American Indian style - bite into it, just like a radish. They can also be grated and served in a salad with your favorite salad dressing.
