Sunchokes, also called Jerusalem Artichokes, are actually a relative of sunflower cultivated for their tubers. Sunchokes are a native root group from the Midwest with a high inulin content, they were/are a traditional remedy for diabetes. The tubers resemble ginger size, but are usually cooked like a potatoes (mashed, fried, roasted, etc). Watch out they give you GAS if you eat too much :)

White Fuseau is great white variety with a sweet flavor and thin skins.  We love them because this variety is not knobby so its easy to clean and peel (though not necessary)They come back year after year and are extremely hardy and grow upto 10ft ending their season with beautiful mini-sunflowers before the tubers are ready,
