Jerusalem Artichoke Deruny - cooking with an incredible Food Forest crop
Vložit

- What is the point of growing our food if we don't know how to cook with it. cooking should be a mandatory skill that every human learns. Survival skill. Save money. Eat healthier.
Previously I discussed growing these things and why they are my #1 recommended crop: • If you grow one crop, ... . Check out the harvest at the 8 min mark!
Today, half a year later, we USE THEM and make a Ukrainian favorite, Deruny, substituting Jerusalem Artichokes for the potatoes. Amazing dish, and absolutely delicious!
5lbs Jerusalem Artichokes (roughly)
1 large onion
1 Egg
8 TBSP flour (roughly)
1/4 TBSP Baking Soda
Salt to taste (I use none)
That's it. Easy peasy. Serve with salsa, cottage cheese, cream cheese, or my favorite an over-easy egg and avocado.
Make sure to boil for 25 to 30 minutes, or you will Dutch-oven your house. This breaks down the inulin which otherwise will give you indigestion problems. That is a nice way to put it.

I’m retiring to the province and jungle life if the Philippines. These will come in handy as both goat food and people foods. Thanks for the lesson.
I slice them thin, toss with olive oil and sea salt. Place on a cookie sheet in the oven and bake til dry and crisp. I am totally addicted to them.
You are making me hungry! 😆 🤣
Try this method to avoid digestion problems. Cut the tubers to bite size and place in a jar (I use 1 L jar per 1 serving). Add water to cover tubers completely. Add 2 table spoons of Apple vinegar. Keep tubers in the solution for 20-30 min. Done. Now cook as you like or eat raw.
I like to mix pieces with 1 tbs of mayo and bake for 30 min at 230C.
I wonder if they could be preserved this way.
@@myronplatte8354 I keep tubers raw in a plastic container in a fridge at ~4C. They are fine for few months. Would be interested to know how people preserve them for longer.
@@100forms8 leave them in the ground and harvest when needed
After watching this I asked a group of people at my afternoon event if anyone had ever heard of 'chokes and if they'd be willing to share.......shockingly, someone did and I'll be getting them next week. WOW
Nice!
@thehazelnutspread Love your name! I've made wine out of the tuber broth. Made a bit on the sweet side it has such an interesting blast on the tongue. The first taste is very honey-like. The second taste I just can't describe, but it's good. The aftertaste is ... ready? Hazelnut!! I used just the broth, sugar and a sprinkle of raisins for natural fruit yeast. You can follow any common wine recipe. Oh, if you use a clear fermenting container, the broth and sugar will gelatinize at first and look really weird, but it'll liquefy and start to ferment.
I've started growing these in Florida and so far so good. I can't wait to taste these and try this. My mother used to make German patoto pancakes for me on special occasions. Good memories!
Had me at Ukrainian potato pancakes!!! Looks like something I'd tear down for sure!!! I will have mine with all the fixings mentioned!!! Thanks for the share!!
I could eat plates of these. I have no self control for them.
Thank you very much ! I just pulled 10 lbs up today.....
I'm a fan of sour cream and applesauce with my potato pancakes. I'll have to try it with these.
Plant... and the takeover begins. Awesome! 😆 Yum:
I researched Jerusalem Artichokes a couple of years ago - your channel being part of that. Well I’ve had a great year, and a great crop! The next crop is in the ground ready to start growing in the spring - and I’m working my way through the load I still have left (stored in soil like you suggested) - and I’ve been looking for a new recipe - here it is! Thanks mate!
Wonderful!
I’ve always eaten them raw. that’s the thing I like about them. Just wash them off and eat them. Easy Peezy. I guess it would be prudent to find a dose that doesn’t create discomfort if that’s your experience. That inulin is a wonderful prebiotic fiber. so it’s great for feeding the beneficial bacteria in the gut. Lots of health benefits there!
I can tolerate that too actually. My wife though, she gets SHUT DOWN for the night if she eats them raw. I think it just hits people differently.
What is your experience freezing extra please
Freezing whole or large pieces is OK, @@daleboyes8467, but if you want to freeze small pieces or grated for hash browns or pancakes or latkes, it's best to press some of the moisture out of them, they're much 'wetter' than potatoes. I live in zone 5 with deep freezing weather. Our spring harvest after a long winter freeze is great and we can then eat them raw, sliced thin into salads or as snacks.
Five ways to eliminate the gas issue by converting the Inulin fiber into fructose; Freezing. Fermenting. Extended cooking time. Cooking with acidic ingredients. Getting your guts healthy by taking Inulin daily.
Very impressive...omebody gets to be so organic.
You had me at, "It's like potato pancakes." Actually I was hooked at the title.
My husband and I love Jerusalem artichokes, but our kids aren't keen on them. A recipe like this could be a good way to make them more palatable to the kids.
So we made 27 of these in this video. Typically 1 to 2 is enough to eat, 1 for the kids and 2 for an adult. 3 is in the area of "I ate way too much".
After dinner we have a dozen left. Family of 5. I had 2, my wife had 1. My boys are going to eat me out of house and home, so every free meal we can get is so helpful. They ate a dozen of these things.
This meal cost us maybe a dollar or two total, and we have leftovers.
@@CanadianPermacultureLegacy now that's a success! I just replanted all my tubers from last year, so i will have to keep this recipe in mind for when they start producing again.😊
@@CanadianPermacultureLegacy - this looks really good. Is inulin bad? If you don't boil them, do they cause gastric issues? You strike me as someone who would be into carbon steel or cast iron vs non-stick pans (horrible, got rid of all that in the 90's despite lots of incredulous contempt).
@@jcriverside, if you want a healthy gut biom, then you don't need to boil the inulin out of them. Inulin is a prebiotic. And thus feeds prebotics in your gut. Infact when you purchase inulin powder, it is derived from JA.
@jcriverside Inulin is an excellent prebiotic. Your good bacteria love it, and thus, the good bacteria will outweigh the nasty bacteria.
To me, that 's more like hash browns, but exactly what I was wanting to do. Thanks :)
nice dish :) as a Ukrainian-born girl I can confirm that the recipe is right :) I would definitely try the jerusalem artichoke version of deruny. Similar dish exists also in Germany, were they it them with apple sauce (I never tried it, because it is a bit strange to me) or with salmon and dill - sour cream (which is absolutely delicious)
I can’t wait till next year to plant these!
Very very happy to see this
Thank you I will try it! Just dug up my sunchokes but it is snowing here in Edmonton.Sucks. At least I have some new way to cooked up.
Hope you enjoy them!
Looks yummy. I’m growing them this year….first time. 🤓
Same, started with seeds they’re just now starting to flower I think the cold might stop it but I hope they survive winter ❤
I love chana masala, and i also love aloo tikki, which is pretty much this plus some more spices. I don't have any sunchokes planted but you could probably make sunchoke tikki lol
Yum! Thank You!
Definitely will try this, thanks!
Finally was able to harvest some Jerusalem artichokes, no thanks to the voles, so I am making these today. So excited
Let me know how you like them, good or bad, either way. I have found that it may take a few tries to find a good recipe that you like.
@@CanadianPermacultureLegacy My husband and I really liked them, no surprise there. My youngest also liked them but not the older two. *sigh* I am not giving up, though, and will try variations. 😀 My daughter especially likes cumin, so I will try spices directly in them the next time.😉
Kind of similar here. My wife and I loved them. My oldest LOVED them. The middle son ate them. The youngest wouldn't even try it.
Its all a process. Our youngest is the pickiest, but he is getting better. He does much better with food that he helps growing. It connects him to it a bit. But if we didn't work on it, he would be a nuggets and fries, and pizza only type of kid.
A good outdoor cat is good for rodent control... or you may want to set up a barn owl box.
@@myronplatte8354 yeah, we do have an outdoor cat (had three when I wrote that comment). Our latest home loss was a purchased honey locusts tree...a vole ate clean through the junction of trunk-base and root mass 😑 We have perches in the garden and a grange and outbuildings where owls can nest but no species-specific boxes. Might be worth looking into.
This looks so delicious!
Good stuff right here. Thanks
Thank you, brother, thank you.
Thank you for this video. I have just been eating them mashed. Which I do enjoy. Gotta give your recipe a try for sure!
Thanks for the DSMR session 🙉
Can't wait to try this recipe. Thanks and blessings!
Nice ❤
Looks yummy…thanks!
Looks good!
Thank you
Thanks for this recipe! I have some of these growing on the back on my property, and I haven't done anything with them. So I will definitely be trying this recipe soon... Especially since I have so many eggs that I need to use up. Thanks!
Great video thanks 🙏🏻
Nice 👍
So interesting video and nice food
That looks so delicious. I definitely need to start growing those, haven't yet.
If you try them and find any tweaks that you like, make sure to let me know!
I bought seeds, just now starting to flower I hope they survive winter ❤
I love my Jerusalem artichokes! I will munch them raw sometimes and my dog loves them as well raw. But I also love adding them to soups and stews. Can’t wait to try out this recipe. Have you tried feeding your dog the leaves yet? My dog absolutely loves the leaves. And in the fall he loved chomping the stalks when I chopped them down
Not the dogs, but the chickens loved them
Scrubbing artichokes? It's what a washing-machine is for (little different from those rotating potato scrubbers that abrade the peel). I drop about ten pounds of tubers (Jerusalem Artichokes) in the washing machine and run it on a DELICATES cycle, (no detergent!). They come out looking lovely, and I figure that the sloshing water reaches into crevices that the bristles don't reach. Chris
I had an old washing machine with a leak. I had it under the carport and washed beets in it.
It worked. I was mad when hubby decided to take it to the scrap yard. I told him to take his crap and leave my crap alone. Now I'm back to scrubbing.
Scrolling my feed, 10:52PM EST and this video with a still of the pancakes fills my screen.
FFS, now I want food, and I want those veggie pancakes. *RIGHT. NOW.*
Thanks for posting the recipe, but this is your fault because I'm still hungry! 😂
LOL for some reason youtube picked up this video and has been pushing it to people. You never know what the algorithm is up to next.
Wow thank you to you share this video I learn and ideas to cook Jerusalem artichoke because I don't know that why I reached in you tube God bless you 👍
Wonderful!
I could see some hash brown possibilities.
I was cracking up a little as you were talking about the oil turning carcinogenic at high heat while frying them in a carcinogenic non-stick pan 😂. I wouldn’t trust ANY of those coated pans! Switch to cast iron if you want to be safe! Plus you get bonus traces of iron in your food!
Good video though! Thanks for making it…. What is the baking soda for in the recipe?
Indeed! That pan is long gone. Cast iron all the way!
My eldest boy gave me 6 or so tubers and they were bountiful, but when I gave them back a load of artichokes along with my home grown garlic which they roasted and made soup out of, they were in bits with flatulence.
I will try your suggestion, as this is a handy vegetable to grow and a lovely late season yellow flower. I am also fermenting some to see if this helps, I will let you know one way or another!!!
Temperature and time will break down the inulin. Boiling for 30 mins works for my wife. I don't get it bad, but she gets really bad stomach pain if I don't boil it long enough.
It’s been a year. Come back and let us know if the fermentation helped. ❤
Great to see some recipe, brings things in perspective 😂. Those Deruny are like german Reibekuchen, those are made with potatoes and chopped onions, and they usually put some mashed apple sauce on top. Could be something to try with J. Artichokes too.
Definitely will try that
I am thinking waffles.
This looks great! Quick question for you though: why do you say that 'less calories' means healthier?
Good point. Nutrition isn't calories. That being said, for many people, the sheer energy in vs energy out is a big concern. End of the day, that's what matters for gaining or losing weight. But you are right, nutrition matters.
Interesting crop, I can not eat it because I am diabetic.
I just harvested a lot of sunchokes - my first crop. You mention at the beginning of the video that you store yours in compost. Could you please expand on that? I'm in the GTA (Ontario), zone 6 and do not have enough fridge space for everything I harvested! I do not have a garage. Are you storing your sunchokes in compost through the winter? Is it covered? Does it freeze?
It doesn't have to be compost, in fact it's better if it's just dirt. Ideally you want to replicate what nature does. Store them in the ground.
The reason we don't store them in the actual ground is that it then freezes. So ideally it's in a cool spot that doesn't freeze completely.
i wonder if it has the same consistency as cassava. looks like it.
8 tbl spoons or half a cup
Wondering if you could make salmon cakes with this recipe😉
Great idea!
In your Description you said, 'Make sure to boil for 25 to 30 minutes, or you will Dutch-oven your house.' What does that mean?
Farts
The fiber Inulin can react with unhealthy gut bacteria and cause anywhere from just a nasty smelling fart or two to extreme pain, bloating and a 'get out of the house' dose of farts! My wife and I take a daily Inulin supplement for gut health, so our guts handle fresh 'chokes very well. For those who've never had 'chokes before, start slow with no more than an ounce per serving until you find out how your gut handles them and the way you've prepared them.
Freezing, fermenting, extended cooking, or cooking with an acidic ingredient converts the Inulin into fructose and the gas ... issue! is taken care of.
So there is no need to peel them before cooking like with potatoes? That would be time saving. I bet this vegetable is more nutritious that regular potatoes.
No need to peel them before cooking them. Nutrient composition is close but yes these are better. Overall, it takes slightly longer to cook with these compared to potatoes, just because you have to boil them for longer first, to get rid of the inulin. However it depends on how the inulin effects you - it doesn't do much to me, but it impact my wife a lot.
Ive been wanting to grow those for a long time here in california but im not sure where to find them. 😢
Etsy!❤
I put mine in hamburger meat. Make into burgers and bake them. Keep the burgers moist.
Great use 👍
Can you boil for 25 minutes and then freeze over winter to add to stew? or to make the "pancake?"
Yes absolutely
You are in Canada ?
Yes, Ontario, between London and Ottawa.
Was that supposed to be 1/4 TABLESPOON (what even IS that?) of baking soda? Or 1/4 TEASPOON?
Tablespoon. Honestly just ballpark it and it will be fine.
Did you remove the skin before shredding?
No
"Waste nothing" except alot of excess time that is the most finite resource we have🤣😅 my s.o.'s mother is from s. Korea and all about weird foods. She is growing these, id never heard about em so i looked it up. Thats ALOT of work to eat something that can destroy your stomach, give you extreme gas, even sicken you. Potatoes... leave them in light, put em in the ground. They grow like crazy and are g2g. Im all for self sustinance and farming but this one seems all around like a bad idea😅 id like to at least try em once before i make up my mind. For me, my homesteading is to MAXIMIZE energy, maximize calories, not the opposite
They aren't that bad at all. I'm a busy guy, family of 5, full time job, youtube side gig, kids hockey, baseball, and we do it easy.
@@CanadianPermacultureLegacy hey were the same! Family of 5! Dont be defending. I love the info. Yt chanell buut for different things. My opinion is that- time is limited. Homesteading.. you go for the power punch every single time. If this is a "I enjoy eating this" and it may just be a sidetrack. Ok . I do that too😅. But in my evaluation of your video. It was trying to make it something it wasnt. A logical staple. Its in the sunflower family. Tell me to my face a sunflower offshoot is legitimately better than say... a potatoe. You arent homesteading for shit. Just. You tubing🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 we have 37 chickens. 6 ducks. And 5 turkeys. I just counted as i fed them. So.. your entire pod was to sell how GOOD this garbage root was. Humans. You want to live? Ignore this shit. Do normal gardening. Not something that you HAVE to process or youll die or shit your guts out🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 fkning clown. Enjoy the idiots yt money
Seed oils and refined vegetable oils have been found to cause macular degeneration which leads to blindness. Use butter, olive oil, coconut oil, lard or tallow.
That's complete nonsense. I actualy did read all (61) studies about seed oils/inflamation correlation and 59 showed no negative effect on inflamation. Rapeseed (canola) oil has more omega-3 fats than olive oil.
Butter is not healthy -- Finnland reduced rates of heart attacks and strokes by 92% in 20 years (1990-2010) by substituting saturated fats with oils and cookies and pancakes with fruits on a population level. That was the biggest health improvement in the history of western public health systems and it obliterated the idea of saturated fats being "heathy".
why would i want to destroy the inulin?
It can cause flatulence, and upset stomach. Some people can handle it though, some can't. For more information, see this video czcams.com/video/Eiy0F6HFqlA/video.html
Are you sure that's 5 pounds? I Just measured out 5 pounds and it seems to be almost 2x what you have in your dish. Thanks.
The video was so long ago I'm not sure anymore. You are probably right though.
Replying to your post for artichokes in Kijiji :) please send me address if they are still available. Thank you !!
All my extra inventory was given away already. I may sell some in the fall if you are interested. I'm not sure how close you are to me. It's possible I'll be driving into work by then, who knows, maybe I can drop some off at your place if you are on the way to work.
Canadian Permaculture Legacy I am also in Oshawa not far from you. If you had some left I will be able to drive by again :)
It's actually a Russian recipe. But hey, who's counting right? Ukraine was Soviet area when it was named..
What is deruny?
It's the stuff in the video. It takes like hashbrowns.
We didn't need anywhere near 25 minutes of boiling. More like 5.
We've been trying different boiling times. I'm good with very little boiling. My wife needs a solid 25 mins or its going to be a long night for her. Her stomach gets so cramped.
I think its probably a few factors at play. The specific variety could play a part, as well as someone's own personal body chemistry.
I'm pretty sure I could eat these raw and be okay.
@@CanadianPermacultureLegacy Really interesting... I wonder if this correlates in any way with oral antibiotics and such...
Possibly, in so far as they may affect gut biome.
Just a note, @@CanadianPermacultureLegacy and @myronplatte8354 I got a double whammy from my parents concerning colon issues. They both had polyps and full blown cancer. I'm 68, had 'chokes on the farm when I was a kid. Mom and dad had nothing to do with "those things" so, while growing up I snacked on them raw, by myself. When my wife and I decided to move to the edge of town for convenience, I got back into growing them. I've got two varieties gathered locally in west-central PA.
We had gas trouble and I got into researching them and Inulin. Found out it's an excellent prebiotic and regular use reduces and can eliminate gut inflammation, the cause of polyps and cancer. Our preservative laced foods and over use of antibiotics is the major cause of unbalanced gut bacteria and associated health problems. Long story short, my doc has dropped my colonoscopy schedule from a high risk 3 years, to a low risk 5 years deal. Whoohoo!! My first 'scope when I was 50 yielded polyps and showed extensive inflammation. Shortly after that is when I started daily Inulin and all the 'scopes since then have been polyp and inflammation free! My wife suffered from diverticulitis, usually around the holidays when it's so hard to watch what you eat and when you eat it. I talked her into taking it too and in the last 9 years she's only had one or two attacks! I'd call that nothing but great!
If anyone decides to do this, first, talk it over with your doctors. If everyone agrees, get loose powder supplement and start with 1/8 tsp daily. Don't start with the capsules, that's way too much to start with! Every 10 to 15 days double the dose as your gut will allow ... you'll know! That would be 1/8 tsp to 1/4 tsp to 1/2 tsp to 1 tsp. My wife takes about 1/2 to 3/4 tsp each day, I take 1 heaping tsp each day. It's a sweetener, a sugar substitute. She takes hers in coffee. I can't stand sweet coffee but sweet tea is OK, so I take mine in hot tea.
Do you realize that five pounds, is roughly two-kilograms? When I read the recipe my mind asked if you’re feeding a hay crew. Then you said five pounds of flour. And finally added about eight tablespoons of flour.
No, I said a few times earlier that we're doing 5 pounds of Jerusalem Artichokes. Then in the spot you mean (I think, which is between around 3:00 and 4:00), I say that we're adding 5 to 8 table spoons of flour. At 3:50 I grab the table spoon measuring utensil and say, "so for 5 pounds, we're adding 5-8 (tablespoons)".
Could've been healthy without all that flour.
Unfortunately it's necesary, or else they won't cook properly. They will just crisp on the outside and remain pure mush on the inside. Watery mush. It's not nice. That being said, you can substitute other things instead of flour, such as acorn flour.
@@CanadianPermacultureLegacy Or maybe Almond Flour.
So unhealthy with the four and cooking oil
Can definitely skip that part and do differently. This is a cultural recipe from my grandparents.
