This soup combines the wonderful flavors of leeks, spinach, Jerusalem artichokes (sunchokes), turkey sausage, garlic, parsley, celery, and potatoes. Serve it on a cold evening with a hearty chunk of bread and a hot apple toddy.
This was my first time eating sunchokes and they were delightful! This soup was superb. I used ground turkey instead of sausage and cooked the meat before adding the rest. Served it with homemade whole wheat bread and it was a hit.

Excellent flavor! Sauteed the vegies browned the meat and then finished cooking in the crock pot. I did not add the flour/water for thickening. Will definitely make this soup again and again.

This really is one of my favorites. Hate to rate my own recipe but sunchokes are totally underrated. I just made this again the other day and EVERYONE loved it. So unusual around here with all the rabid meat eaters!

I changed this slightly and used pork sausage sicne that was what I had on hand. I also omitted the bacon. I made it in the slow cooker and didn't thicken it at the end. It was delicious and reminded me of Italian wedding soup.

I have to preface this with I ate at a great restaurant last nite and woke up this morning still craving the Jerusalem artichoke soup I had and this recipe appeared to be the closest. I had to half this recipe because I was making it for just my boyfriend and I. I substituted the turkey bacon for 4oz of pancetta the turkey sausage for Italian chicken sausage and fresh kale for the spinach. I did not add the pancetta or the chicken sausage to the veggies that were cooking for 45 min. After the 45min I poured in 1/4 cp of heavy cream and 3/4 cp of half-n-half mashed the potatoes with a potato masher and then used my immersion blender to make the whole thing creamy. I added 1 Tbsp of sugar (kinda to cut the cayenne b/c I used a 1/2 tsp of it) and a healthy splash of lemon juice and the chopped and cooked pancetta and chicken sausage. I let it all go for another 30 min and in the end this tasted as close to Chef Michael Chittum's Jerusalem Artichoke soup at Vermillion in Old Town Alexandria VA as a mere mortal could ever dream to come close to!

Didn't have sausage or bacon on hand so I omitted those ingredients and just added a cubed chicken breast (split in half baked in oven at 350 til done). It was enough for our family of 5 - maybe a total of 7 servings??? And we have young kids. DELICIOUS!!!!
