Eaten raw their taste is comparable to the taste of a water chestnut.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">So let&#8217;s take a look at some of their health benefits. \u00a0Jerusalem artichokes are a very good source of minerals and electrolytes, especially potassium<b>,<\/b> iron, and copper. \u00a0They contain small amounts of anti-oxidant vitamins C, A and E. \u00a0And 100 g contain approximately 3.4 mg of iron.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">But perhaps the greatest health benefit of Jerusalem artichokes lies in their prebiotic function. These root vegetables contain a non-digestible soluble fiber called inulin. \u00a0Inulin belongs to a class of compounds called fructans. And inulin feeds our good gut bacteria greatly enhancing our intestinal health. \u00a0And when cancer is considered, or any disease for that matter, \u00a0the gut must always be addressed.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">This is a super tasty soup, that is easy to make and full of function!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong><u>Jerusalem Artichoke Soup<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><u>Ingredients<\/u><\/p>\n<p>3 TBSP butter<\/p>\n<p>4 cloves of garlic, minced<\/p>\n<p>1 small yellow onion, chopped<\/p>\n<p>\u00bd tsp. salt &amp; pepper<\/p>\n<p>500 grams Jerusalem Artichokes, peeled and halved<\/p>\n<p>Pinch of chili pepper (optional)<\/p>\n<p>1 liter of chicken broth<\/p>\n<p>5 fresh sage leaves<\/p>\n<p><strong><u>Directions<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Melt butter in a soup pot<\/li>\n<li>Add garlic, onion, salt and pepper.
