OVEN-ROASTED PARSNIP AND SUNCHOKE

Sunchokes are tubers, like potatoes, and resemble ginger root. They come from a type of sunflower native to North America. Many people try to peel sunchokes, but I find it is easier to wash them well before tossing them in oil. Parsnips and onions add a nice complexity to this side dish.

Time 45m

Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 small onion
3 small red potatoes
1 pound Jerusalem artichokes, unpeeled
1 celery rib
2 tablespoons sunflower-seed oil or olive oil
2 garlic cloves, minced
6 cups vegetable stock
1 1/2 teaspoons sea salt, plus more to taste
Freshly ground black pepper
2 bay leaves
Milk or cream, for thinning
1/2 cup croutons, crisped in the oven
Roasted hazelnut or pumpkin-seed oil

Steps:

  • Chop the vegetables into 1/2-inch chunks. Heat the sunflower-seed oil in a soup pot, add the vegetables and sauté over high heat, stirring, until lightly browned, about 10 minutes, adding the garlic during the last few minutes. Pour in the stock. Add 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and the bay leaves. Bring to a boil, then simmer, covered, until the potatoes are tender, about 25 minutes.
  • Cool briefly, fish out the bay leaves, then purée the soup until perfectly smooth. Return the soup to the stove and add enough milk or cream to thin it to the desired consistency. Taste for salt and season with pepper. Serve with a few croutons in each bowl and the hazelnut oil drizzled over the top.

Time 1h50m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 pounds Jerusalem artichokes, scrubbed and sliced 1/3-inch thick
1 large Yukon Gold potato, diced
6 large cloves garlic
2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
8 ounces mushrooms, sliced
2 tablespoons vegan margarine
1 large onion, diced
1 teaspoon sea salt
2 cups water
6 cups mushroom broth
1 tablespoon chopped fresh sage
½ cup soy milk

Steps:

  • Preheat an oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
  • Toss the Jerusalem artichokes, potatoes, and garlic with 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large bowl; season with sea salt and black pepper. Spread the mixture into a baking dish. Toss the mushrooms with another tablespoon of olive oil in a separate bowl; spread into a separate baking dish.
  • Bake the potato mixture in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Place the mushrooms in the oven and continue baking until the potatoes are soft and slightly browned, about 25 minutes more. Remove both dishes from the oven and set aside.
  • Melt the vegan margarine in a large stock pot over medium-low heat; cook the onion in the margarine until completely soft, 7 to 10 minutes. Stir the roasted potato mixture and the mushrooms into the onions, along with 1 teaspoon sea salt and the water; allow the mixture to come to a simmer, stirring occasionally, for 4 to 5 minutes. Stir the mushroom broth and sage into the mixture. Place a cover on the stock pot and cook to allow the flavors to blend, about 20 minutes.
  • Allow the soup to cool slightly before pouring in batches into a blender, filling the pitcher no more than halfway. Hold the lid firmly with a folded kitchen towel and carefully start the blender, using a few quick pulses to get the soup moving before leaving it on to puree; transfer blended batches to a clean pot. Alternately, you can use a stick blender and puree the soup in the pot. Stir the soy milk, if using, into the finished bisque to serve.

Tips:

  • Choose the right sunchokes: Look for sunchokes that are firm and have a smooth, unblemished skin. Avoid any sunchokes that are soft, bruised, or have signs of sprouting.
  • Prep the sunchokes properly: Before using, scrub the sunchokes thoroughly with a vegetable brush to remove any dirt or debris. Then, peel the sunchokes using a sharp knife or vegetable peeler.
  • Use a good quality vegetable broth: The vegetable broth you use will make a big difference in the flavor of the bisque. Choose a broth that is low in sodium and has a rich, flavorful taste.
  • Don't overcook the sunchokes: Sunchokes are best when they are cooked until they are tender but still have a slight crunch. Overcooking will make them mushy and bland.
  • Season the bisque to taste: Once the bisque is cooked, taste it and adjust the seasonings as needed. You may want to add more salt, pepper, or garlic powder to taste.
  • Garnish the bisque before serving: A simple garnish can make a big difference in the presentation of the bisque. Try sprinkling some chopped fresh parsley, chives, or crumbled bacon on top.

Conclusion:

Sunchoke bisque is a delicious and nutritious soup that is perfect for a cold winter day. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own personal taste. Experiment with different toppings and garnishes to find your favorite way to enjoy this soup.
