Elizabethan Artichoke Pie
Sep. 24th, 2015 09:40 amDidn't happen, because our order ended up as a tin of globe artichoke hearts rather than 350g of Jerusalem artichokes.
Soon I must go hunt out Jerusalem artichokes to go with the grapes, eggs and dates that make up this damn pie. I begin to fear it in the doing and in the eating. As for downtown Lewisham in the rain... almost tempts one to make a chili and have done.
Edited to add: Across the wilds of Woolwich, Lewisham and Blackheath there's nary a Jerusalem artichoke to be found. They exist not, nor are they known. The nearest in appearance are coco yams, and I fear they won't do at all.
I like Jerusalem artichokes. Am I alone in this cold wilderness of better loved tubers?
