Sarah shows you how to identify, harvest, and lactoferment Jerusalem Artichoke, Helianthus tuberosus. We will talk about foraging the edible root, aspects to look for in looking for this plant, and the one way that I like to prepare and eat them. Pickled!
This is an edible root that can be prolific, be it found as a wild plant or better yet a wildly growing cultivar that has escaped the grasp of the person who planted it.
It goes by many names; jerusalem artichoke, sunchoke, earth apple, and fartichoke to name a few.

What do you know this plant as by name?

Some people delight in these, some people get terribly gassy, and others have never tried them. Do you eat these sweet crunchy roots? How is it that you like to prepare and eat them?
