The jerusalem artichokes having finished giving their joyful sunny yellow flowers, have died back. However, this plant keeps just on giving - the stalks become so tall, they collapse , revealing the convoluted and strangely shaped artichokes that are normally hidden beneath the earth. A couple are tinged with green, which I cut off and the rest are cut up and roasted with olive oil, garlic, salt and thyme. Such a satisfying thing it is to eat what you have grown and nurtured.
