My mom harvested a huge grocery bag full of these for me last week. Does anyone have any recipes that they like? I have googled and came up with a few ideas, but I thought I'd ask here for any tried and true ways to cook them.
Thank you!

I ended up roasting them with poblanos, and I served them in burritos with kale, black beans, roasted chicken, and cilantro/onions/hot sauce/squeeze of lime.
Very good!
I still have a few pounds left, so I think dh is going to plant some, and I'll find something else to do with the rest.
Since you had some left, I hope it's not too late to post a recipe I really enjoy - Cream of Jerusalem Artichoke Soup. It's very rich and filling, but very easy.
2 Tbsp. butter
2 tsp. chopped garlic
1/3 cup chopped onion
1 lb. Jerusalem artichokes, washed, sliced 1/4 in. thick (I also peeled them, since sometimes they can be bitter if unpeeled)
2 cups chicken stock
1 cup cream
salt and pepper
Chives or parsley to garnish.
Melt the butter, add onion and saute until softens a little. Add garlic and saute about 1 min. Add the artichokes and saute about 2 min. Add stock, boil and then turn down to simmer until the chokes are tender. Add the cream. Puree in a blender until smooth. Add salt and pepper to taste. Strain through a fine sieve. Serve garnished with chives or parsley.
