Found a lot of Jerusalem artichokes this year and turned to Mrs
Beeton who
says, 'Wash the artichokes and peel them'!


How the hell do you peel such an irregular shaped root?


I don't. I just scrub them.

If you steam them you can just scoop out the flesh with a spoon, either
on the plate or before serving.


I quite agree. They taste better and discolour less cooked in their
skins, too.


If I'm making soup, i cook them first, then liquidise them with the
stock. Stands up by itself, so it does.


And, after a good meal of that, you levitate by yourself, you do ....


A lesson the Natural Law Party might apply to their Yogic Flying.
