  • About

A velvety smooth soup that is quite delicious. Unfortunately, it can provoke flatulence in a lot of people, so try it in private before serving it in public. Garnish with garlic croûtons and a little parsley.

Ingredients

  • 450 g/1 lb Jerusalem artichokes
  • 25 g/1

Method

Clean the artichokes, but do not peel them. Chop coarsely and cook in the butter with the onion for a moment or two, before adding the stock. Simmer for 20 minutes. Leave to cool, then blend to a purée. Pour back into the pan and reheat gently, adding the cheese and seasoning.
