So, what is topinambur?

Topinambur, also known as Jerusalem artichoke, is a unique tuber that belongs to the sunflower family. Its knobby, brown-skinned exterior hides a crunchy, slightly sweet flesh that tastes like a cross between a potato and an artichoke heart. This versatile ingredient can be enjoyed raw or cooked, and is commonly used in soups, stews, and salads. Not only is topinambur delicious, it is also a good source of potassium, iron, and fiber, making it a nutritious addition to any meal. With its distinct flavor and texture, topinambur is a must-try ingredient for any adventurous cook.
