Jerusalem Artichoke Pickles

Ingredients for Jerusalem Artichoke Pickles

• 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

• 900g Jerusalem artichokes (also called Sun Chokes)

• 425ml distilled white vinegar

• 180ml sugar

• 180ml water

• 1/2 tablespoons whole mustard seeds

• 1/2 teaspoons turmeric

• 1/4 teaspoons cayenne

• 1/2 large sweet onion, halved lengthwise and thickly sliced

How to make Jerusalem Artichoke Pickles

Stir lemon juice into a large bowl of cold water.

Peel Jerusalem artichokes and cut into 1/2-inch-thick rounds. Transfer as cut to acidulated water (to prevent discoloring).

Bring vinegar, sugar, water, mustard seeds, turmeric, cayenne, and 1 1/2 teaspoons salt to a boil in a medium nonreactive saucepan, stirring until sugar has dissolved. Cool brine to room temperature.

Cook Jerusalem artichokes and onion in a large pot of boiling water 1 minute. Drain and spread out on a kitchen towel to cool. Put vegetables in a glass or ceramic bowl and pour brine over them. Weight vegetables with a small plate to keep submerged, then cover bowl tightly. Chill, stirring once or twice a day, at least 1 week (to allow flavours to develop).
