Ingredients
- 2 pounds Jerusalem artichokes (also known as sunchokes)

Instructions
- Peel the Jerusalem artichokes, then chop them into quarter-sized pieces. In a soup pot, heat up olive oil over medium heat. Saute minced onion until soft. Add the garlic and saute for another 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
- Add the chopped Jerusalem artichokes to the pot and cover with vegetable or chicken stock. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to a simmer. Let the artichokes cook for 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are soft and tender.
- Stir in the coconut milk and bring back to a low simmer. Stir in a pinch of cayenne, salt and pepper to taste (I use about 1/2 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp pepper).
- Remove soup from heat. Use an immersion blender to puree the soup.
- Garnish with chopped chestnuts or pistachios and a drizzle of truffle oil, if desired.
Notes
- You will also need: vegetable peeler, soup pot, immersion blender
- A slight word of caution - Jerusalem artichokes contain inulin, a substance that can cause stomach sensitivity in some people. If you are inulin sensitive, or you just want to be safe, make sure you take a digestive enzyme before indulging in any Jerusalem artichoke recipe.
