Happy to see the gardening sub pop up, and want to facilitate some discussion. So ask me anything you're curious about. I might not know the answer outright, but can help troubleshoot stuff too.

    I've never had a sunchoke unfortunately, but I've definitely seen that reputation is well deserved due to the specific carb that the tubers contain. I'd still eat them and try them out for sure. But probably peel and cook them thoroughly first. Wish there was some surviving native recipes I could find for it. They probably had some prep technique that made it not as bad, so I would do some research in that direction.
