Cream of Jerusalem artichoke soup

winter jerusalem artichoke velouté soup
There is no much left in the garden at the moment: leeks, black raddish and… Jerusalem artichokes.
Jerusalem artichokes withstand extreme frost in winter. They are not only easy to cultivate but they also contain fructose and minerals such as iron, silicon carbide and calcium.
In winter, you need warmth for your body and mind. So, why not try the Jerusalem artichoke soup?

 

You will need for 4 

  • 2 lbs / 500g Jerusalem artichokes
  • 7 oz / 200g potatoes
  • 1 carrot
  • 1 shallot
  • 1 clove of garlic
  • 24 fl oz / 75cl of well seasoned vegetable stock (put 2 organic vegetable stocks)
  • 5 fl oz / 15cl cream of rice
  • thyme
  • olive oil
  • salt and pepper
  • a pinch of bicarbonate
  • bacon or foie gras (for festive parties!)

 

Directions

1) Prep the vegetables

Peal the vegetables, Jerusalem artichokes, carrots and potatoes, dice them and sauté in olive oil with the sliced shallot and the pressed clove of garlic.

Stir-fry for about ten minutes.

2) Simmer

Add the broth and the thyme – that you can put in a tea ball to remove it more easily.

Simmer for 25 minutes.

3) Mix, garnish and serve

Remove the thyme and puree the vegetables. Add the cream of rice. It is time to check the consistency, to add more water if you think the soup is too thick. Season with salt and pepper.

Serve in bowls and add pieces of bacon or foie gras for a more festive flair!

I have a Mantis Compost Tumbler which is so easy to use. Just put the waste materials in the drum, fasten up the cover and turn the handle the recommended 5 times each day. The rotation of the drum keeps the materials moving and the aeration vents mean no nasty odours. No heavy forking, no mess and good compost within a much shorter time than the standard static plastic composter I had previously. I’m very happy with this product and would recommend it to anyone.

In May I purchased one of your Compost Rollers and I must say that it was the best thing I did. Already I have a batch of lovely compost ready to use. I shall be telling my family and friends about it and giving them your brochure. I will also put it on face book.
