    Many of you asked about sunchokes giving people gas. Look, everyone's digestive system is different. Just like with beans, some people have no problems with them and some do. That being said, sunchokes are not normally served in large quantities. So if you haven't had them before, maybe don't eat the whole baking sheet of them alone in one sitting even if they taste really good.

    • @outlayabout
      @outlayabout 3 года назад +10

      Thanks for addressing this, Helen.
      I think many people laugh off warnings about gas as if the risk were just embarrassment. Gas is one of the few ways I can think of, barring allergy, that a dish can cause severe physical pain. The only other that springs to mind is the capsaicin in chili peppers.
      Anecdotally, both my partner and I suffer little to no effect from onions and every type of bean, but every time we've had sunchokes it has resulted in suffering.

      Usually the things that make most people gassy don't affect me so I'm curious about sunchokes! If people bring up the gas again just tell them to boil them in lemon juice it will remove the inulin that causes gas!

    Helen, I adore your sense of humor! My parents was growing sunchokes in Kazakhstan on our "dacha", and now in Israel I eating it all the time in soups. Also "the Ottolenghi cookbook" has a great recipe of baked sunchokes with the sage, olives and lemon. This warm salad is must try.
    I am traveling in Greece now. They have very nice fava beans dip salad here. But a few days ago I have found excellent dish which called "married fava" (Φάβα παντρεμένη), it's pretty much the same idea of delicious fava purée topped with slightly panfried strips off red onion, very sweet tomato paste and capers. Absolutely stunning.

    We made this and the pureed sunchokes were a big winner! Learning opportunity: We did a curbside market pickup so someone else did the selecting and bagging of the sunchokes. Unfortunately many of the sunchokes were spoiled or required so much trimming that there wasn't much left after I had gone through them all so after roasting I didn't save many pieces for the salad. We ended up with only 1 and 1/2 cup oz of utterly delicious puree. This experience taught us how to select sunchokes so we will do that personally from now on. Thanks again for the inspiration, I don't think we would have tried sunchokes if we hadn't watched this video.

    I've been interested in growing them but haven't seen anything to do with preparing them before so I was excited when I read the title and over joyed seeing "Helen Rennie" below it~!
    The way you described them has me planning a trip to the middle eastern produce shop that carries them today.
    From what I read about them years ago, Sunchokess are in the sunflower family and super easy to grow, invasive even. Anyone with some sunny growing area will want to save a few and bury them into the ground. Low maintenance to grow them so you can ignore them until they surprise you with a very tall plant with pretty yellow flowers (if I remember correctly... I will check out some videos on growing them next 😁).
    ThanQ very much for another incredible video, Miss Helen. You are the best. You rock and I love you~! 🥰

    I like sunchoke I have been growing them for many years. If you have a yard and you want it careless, I will recommend you grow sun chokes all around the fence and grow pumpkin in front of sunchoke, just let them grow and forget it. Mother Nature will take care them. When winter comes, you go to the yard clean up and harvest, huge pumpkins everywhere, huge sunchokes in the soil.

    I just dug the last few of my sun-chokes, there weren't that many as I had gotten rid of them from my garden as they were threatening to take over my house as well (they are very invasive) I planted a couple in a large tub to save my house. I couldn't find any nice chard in the store so I'm going to use some black kale from my garden but I'll pick that just before I need it, should be OK, just not more than maybe two portions but there's only one of me and there's other stuff too. I believe it will still be yummy as I really like both veggies. I also have my centre piece as they decided to flower this year.

      @@richhall3412 They are one of the popular varieties of Jerusalem artichokes, the other well known one being more regular, roundish and reddish. Mine grow in one elongated, smoother beige 'potato', without many of the little 'ginger bumps' hers had. I love to eat them raw, straight from the garden, or sliced fine in salads, as well as cooked. The flower petals, too, are edible, and smell a little like chocolate. I guess I'm one of the lucky ones who has little problem with digesting them. That may be because I wait to harvest them after a frost, which develops the sugars, perhaps beneficially.
      The name comes from the Italian name, girasole, (literally, 'turn toward the sun') which (like the French tournesol) is the name for sunflowers - Helianthus annuus (annual). They are a close relative, Helianthus tuberosus.

    Looks fabulous Helen. I like using chard. I get it at my local Food Co-op (organic) and usually do a baked vegan lasagne with chard leaves instead of pasta. The Jerusalem artichokes are never super easy to get - it's reverse seasons here in the southern hemisphere and they're not well known, or, have well known uses. Artichokes, or replacement, with the salad sound like a wonderful new dish to try 😊

    Thank you for this recipe. I think I did several things wrong.
    1) I overcooked the sunchokes -- I think something about altitude? My Sunchokes were done a long time before 30 minutes, but wern't browned. When they did they stuck. For sure, not enough oil. I used a nicely conditioned sheet pan with years of browning. But it stuck, so I think more oil.
    2) My lemon yielded in a half about 2 tablespoons -- I then upped the remaining ingredients likewise. I think it was a bad choice.
    3) My chard was no where near as nice as Helen's. January produce, I shouldn't complain. I think it made. difference.
    4) I didn't salt the puree enough, and it didn't stand up like I wanted it to. There was no bite. Maybe a bit more Pomegranite Molasses.
    Thank you Helen for taking me WAY out of my comfort range. Determined to try this again and correct.

      I like lumpy mashed potatoes too, but sunchokes aren't starchy, they won't mash up well without a machine of some sort. Try this to clean your blender: pour some hot water and a few drops of dish soap into it and run it for 30-60 seconds on high speed. Then rinse.

    My Mother in law is growing this in the garden. I hate the taste and I can detect this thing in every meal it’s added, even small amount😐

    I tried artichokes once. I boiled them skin on, boiled them skin off, roast them skin on, roast them skin off.
    I liked 0/4. I find them disguisting

    Idk how you as a professional watch Adam Ragusea. He's contrarian and arrogant while endangering his viewers, keep them from developing an interest in cooking. That guy said himself he "isn't sure if he actually enjoyed cooking rather than trying to impress people for the first 10!!!! Years of him cooking at home" enough said

      He's just a home cook. His viewers just want to learn simple tastey ways to feed thier families and sometimes learn history stuff about food out of curiosity. He isn't trying to appeal to a pro or semi pro chef audience like Helen, but they both have recommended each other's channels in multiple videos and seem to enjoy and respect each other's work. You are right in that he isn't trying to inspire a passion for fine cooking. But so what? He really is just making cooking simpler and approachable for those that don't consider it a passion, which is an important thing to do, even if nothing he's made is super refined or pushes the cooking envelope. Everyone needs to eat and find a way to do so that works for thier palette and lifestyle.

      I love Adam's content. You don't need to like everything that's on the internet. If you don't like it, don't watch it. I am no more "professional" or qualified than Adam. I never went to culinary school. I worked in a restaurant part time as a lowly prep cook for 9 months. That's it. Comments like these make it impossible for Adam and me to comment about each others stuff without call hell breaking loose in the comments. That's a shame. This makes everyone miss out on interesting discussions because instead of listening to what we are actually saying, people want to turn it into black and white. Either Helen loves Adam or Helen hates Adam. If you don't like something we do on our channels, why don't you show us how it's done. Start your own channel and see how the internet likes you ;)

      @@helenrennie I like a feisty Helen. 💪💗I also like Adam, because he tries to understand things and digs into them. So, he's opinionated? You don't have to agree with all his conclusions to learn something from him, or anyone else.
