Woodlands Farm, Poetry and Drawing Day, Jerusalem artichoke

Jerusalem artichoke found in my box



This vegetable is not truly an artichoke but a variety of sunflower with a lumpy, brown-skinned tuber that often resembles a ginger root. Contrary to what the name implies, this vegetable has nothing to do with Jerusalem but is derived instead from the Italian word for sunflower, girasole.
The white flesh of this vegetable is nutty, sweet and crunchy and is a good source of iron.

Jerusalem artichokes can be cooked in much the same way as potatoes or parsnips and are excellent roasted, sautéed or dipped in batter and fried, or puréed to make a delicious soup. 

Saturday 8th March - 11am-2pm - Poetry and Drawing Day
Bring along a poem to read (or just listen) and draw with Rosie Redzia. This month’s theme is Sowing. Over 16s only. £5 per head to include home-made soup, coffee, tea and cake.
