Jim,
I went to great lengths to get "sun chokes" out of an area of the garden.
They were insidious .... sprouting up all over the place. Then I found out
that they were delicious and a good source of carbohydrate for fermentation.
I've really come to enjoy walking out the back door to pick what I'm going
to eat. Eating "weeds" (sun chokes) and "compostables" (pumpkins) is especially
enjoyable. It seems to fill me in places other food doesn't reach.
I hope that some of the sun chokes survived my efforts to eliminate them
so I can cultivate them for the years to come.
Good stuff,
Tom

They are also Painfully called Jerusalem artichokes. I consider them a
delicacy that warrants respect, so hence I call them by another name. you
really should try them if you have a spot that gets hot sun and you can give
them tons of water.
And yes I am a bit more partial to the stout as well!

Jim,
Go with the STOUT .......... didn't mean to shout
What are Sun Chokes?? (Jerusalem Artichokes?)
This is becoming the food network ...... food the original
biofuel.
No complaints from me, I like it.
Like a friend says: "Food is good, especially when you're hungry. It
comes in different colors and flavors too, ya know."

The only trouble I have is deciding between Stout or draft. hmmmm
Say for those inclined to grow Sun chokes here is my favorite recipe for
this native American tuber;
Steam 2 cups sunchokes till fully cooked
mash in saucepan LEAVE SKINS ON!
Add 1 can Chicken or beef broth 11/2 cups
Add 1 can of mushroom stems and pieces
Add 1 cup cream half and half
1 teaspoon Corriander
1 teaspoon powdered dill
1/4 cup rice powder (I prefer basmati or Japanese mini rice {king of
rice})
1 teaspoon salt
dash of pepper (on top of each bowl to dress it up)
(you can make rice powder with a coffee grinder as D Mindock mentioned)
Add water to preferred consistency
Add a pat of butter on top when serving with some chopped chives as a
Enjoy!

Happy Thanksgiving to All,
May we all enjoy our Pumpkin Soup, a slab of Crusty Bread, and our
favorite refreshment ..... James Phelps' suggestion of a Guiness appeals to
me.
Best Wishes to All,
Tom
