Sunchoke Soup

Garnish

Method

Prepare the Soup

  1. 1

    Sauté Vegetables

    In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic. Sauté until the onion becomes translucent, about 5 minutes.

  2. 2

    Cook the Sunchokes

    Add the cleaned and chopped sunchokes to the pot and stir to combine. Cook for an additional 5 minutes.

  3. 3

    Add Broth

    Pour in the vegetable broth and bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 20 minutes, or until the sunchokes are tender.

  4. 4

    Blend the Soup

    Using an immersion blender, blend the soup until smooth. Alternatively, you can transfer the mixture to a blender in batches. Return the blended soup to the pot.

  5. 5

    Add Cream

    Stir in the heavy cream and season with salt and black pepper to taste. Heat the soup gently, but do not boil.

Serve

  1. 6

    Plate the Soup

    Ladle the hot sunchoke soup into bowls. Top each serving with a spoonful of smoked salmon roe and a sprinkle of finely chopped chives.
