Sunchokes? Sunchokes, also called Jerusalem artichokes, are an edible tuber that grows underground, much like a potato. (Pictured)

Used to eat Jerusalem artichokes regularly when I lived in the UK. The most common way to cook them is to scrub, slice as thin as you can be bothered and then either fry or toss in ail and roast. Scummy.
