Oven Roasted Lemon-Garlic Sunchokes

Oven Roasted Lemon-Garlic Sunchokes

Often known as Jerusalem artichokes, these knobby tubers actually have nothing to do with either Jerusalem or artichokes. These root veggies look like a cross between a potato and turmeric or ginger root, but they are actually part of the sunflower family.

Earthy, crunchy, and just a bit nutty, sunchokes shine brightest when treated similarly to potatoes. However, unlike potatoes, sunchokes are edible when raw. Roasted, mashed, fried, or in a salad, now’s the time to give sunchokes a try.

You’re in luck, sunchoke season lasts through early spring. And for more peak produce inspo, check out our Fresh Picks page!

How to Prep
Sunchokes require thorough cleaning before cooking. Use a gentle scrub brush and rinse clean under cool water to remove any debris. Use a sharp knife to remove any damaged areas, if needed.
