Artichoke, Jerusalem

Vegetables Seasonal Venus

The Jerusalem artichoke is the tuber of a North American sunflower species. Unlike potatoes, it stores energy as inulin rather than starch, lending it a sweet, nutty flavor. While highly prebiotic, this inulin can cause significant digestive gas. It is typically roasted, puréed, or eaten raw in salads.
