Sunchoke
The sunchoke, also known as Jerusalem artichoke, is a tuber that comes from a species of sunflower native to North America. It has a knobby, irregular shape and a brownish skin, resembling a ginger root. Sunchokes are known for their nutty, sweet flavor and can be eaten raw or cooked in various dishes.
Rich in inulin, a type of dietary fiber, sunchokes are beneficial for digestive health. They are low in calories and can be used in salads, soups, or roasted as a side dish. Sunchokes are also a good source of vitamins and minerals, including potassium and iron.
