Say what? Exactly. Until last year, Katie and Bret (aka Meatball Hands) had never cooked with Jerusalem artichokes. But they got them last year in their CSA vegetable box. Wondering what to do, they perused their copy of the venerable Silver Spoon Cookbook which lists recipes by their main ingredients and they found a recipe for Jerusalem artichoke risotto which they made and said was absolutely delicious. This year, they got Jerusalem artichokes again and I was fortunate enough to be invited for the encore preparation of the delicious meal. And fortunately for all of you, I documented the cooking process so that you all might enjoy and perhaps duplicate. Click on the delicious tuber below for the full dish.

Well done by the most Italian-y Irish girl I know. One comment … is it coincidence that KT’s and Clarence’s better halves happen to have two of the most velvety, subtley soothing voices I’ve ever heard? Seriously, people, QUIET ON THE SET!!!
