Steps:
- I brought a handful of Jerusalem Artichokes home from the market, washed and roasted them (skin and all) in the oven with a simple drizzle of olive oil, sea salt, and pepper. I cooked them all the way through as I would a baked potato. I tried roasting them a second time replacing the olive oil with hazelnut oil for even tastier results. Now, the vegetable risks to take over my produce life as I know it! I cut some into thin rounds, fried them and sprinkled them over an arugula salad. Delicious. I thought I had reached my peak with these preparations until I tasted this soup...The combination of roasting and stewing them yields a complex flavor.
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
- Place 1/2 the Jerusalem artichokes on a baking sheet. Drizzle them with 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place the tray in the center of the oven and cook until they are completely yielding when pierced with the tip of a knife, 30 to 45 minutes.
- Meanwhile, slice the rest of the Jerusalem artichokes in 1/2-inch thick slices. Heat a medium pot and add the remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil. Add the onion and garlic and season with salt and pepper. Cook for 5 minutes. Add the thyme and the Jerusalem artichokes slices and stir to blend the ingredients. Check the seasoning. Cook for 5 to 10 minutes and add 4 cups water.
- Cook until the Jerusalem artichokes are completely tender, 25 to 30 minutes. If the liquid reduces too much during this cooking time, add the remaining 1 cup water. Remove the roasted ones from the oven, quarter them and add them directly to the soup mixture. Taste for seasoning.
- Remove the thyme from the pot. Add the cream. Puree the soup in small batches in the blender (or a hand blender) until smooth. For a more "rustic" texture, puree only 1/2 and leaving the other 1/2 "chunky." Serve with crusty sourdough or a seeded bread to bring out the naturally nutty flavor of the soup.
- Serving suggestion: Crusty sourdough bread or seeded bread.

- Combine milk and artichokes in a medium saucepan; bring just to a boil over medium heat. Reduce heat to medium-low; simmer, uncovered, until artichokes are tender when pierced with the tip of a paring knife, about 30 minutes. Drain in a colander set over a heatproof bowl, reserving 1 1/4 cups milk.
- In a food processor, puree artichokes until smooth. Pass puree through a fine sieve into a bowl; discard solids.
- Melt remaining 4 tablespoons butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in flour; cook, stirring, 2 minutes. While whisking, slowly add reserved milk; whisk until smooth, then whisk in puree. Remove from heat.
- Whisk in egg yolks, one at a time, until smooth. Whisk in salt, herbs, and remaining 1/3 cup hazelnuts and 1/4 cup cheese.
- In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, beat egg whites to stiff peaks; gently fold into artichoke mixture and spoon into prepared dish. Bake until puffed and golden brown, about 40 minutes. Serve immediately.

ROASTED JERUSALEM ARTICHOKES (OR SUNCHOKES)
This is a super-easy way to cook these vegetables if you've never tried them before and by far my favorite. Jerusalem artichokes, or sunchokes, are starchy tubers like potatoes and turnips. When roasted, the skin becomes flaky and the flesh becomes tender, but the taste of a sunchoke is slightly nutty and sweet. Cooked sunchokes are best when eaten within 2 days. When raw, they store well in your fridge's vegetable bin, wrapped loosely in a paper towel. Enjoy!
