The image shows a close-up view of Jerusalem artichokes piled together, highlighting their knobby, irregular shapes and earthy texture. Jerusalem artichokes (Helianthus tuberosus), also known as sunchokes, sunroots, or earth apples, are a unique root vegetable that can add a fun twist to meals. Despite their name, they are not related to true artichokes, though they do belong to the aster family. This vegetable is native to North America, not the Middle East or Jerusalem, and is known for its sweet and crunchy texture. When eaten, it offers a taste that is somewhat reminiscent of water chestnuts but with a starchy flavor, even though it contains no starch. Jerusalem artichokes can be used as a substitute for other tubers like potatoes or yams, making them versatile and interesting additions to various dishes.
