Jerusalem Artichoke Soup with Chanterelles, Lemon, Parsley & Walnuts

12th November 2017 By Louise Leave a Comment

Jerusalem Artichoke Soup with Chanterelles, Lemon, Parsley & Walnuts

Jerusalem Artichoke Soup with Chanterelles, Lemon, Parsley & Walnuts

Neither from Jerusalem or an actual artichoke, this strange, knobbly vegetable is, in fact, a tuber from the sunflower family. The white flesh of this vegetable is nutty, sweet and is a good source of iron, B vitamins and thiamin. It will discolour if exposed to air so place the peeled vegetable in a bowl of acidulated water until ready to cook.

It’s been so cold and windy today, despite the sun, if you’re like me and in need of warming up try this snowy white soup with a little citrus zing.  Easily prepared in advance and then re-heat when needed.  The chanterelles I pulled out from the freezer, cooked prior to freezing, add another texture to this warming soup.

I hope you all had a good Easter weekend and were I hope you all had a good Easter weekend and were able to catch up with family or friends after time apart. 

I just wanted to jump on here this morning to say I’m taking a little step back from Instagram for a while to dedicate time to recipe development and research. You’ll find me on stories though, I’m not completely disappearing. Hopefully you can bear with me for a few weeks. 😊
Have a great short week friends.

What do you do when you find yourself with lots of wild garlic and a delivery of fresh eggs? You make pasta of course!  With the season just beginning, it’s just too tempting not to use these fragrant leaves in just about everything.
What have you been making with your wild garlic?
