Try it it's delicious! I had a truckload of them in my garden and had to do something before they regrow... What better way to lactoferment them?!

Does fermentation reduce the... unfortunate effects of Sunchokes?

Actually it does! (At least in our experience) I didn't find any hard scientific evidence other than: "fermenting something make it more digestible". Plus salt-lactofermented food tend to be eaten in small proportions as a side... I can't say if the results would be the same with a full sunchoke soup.

In my experience, it helps a lot. By orders of magnitude. (And it tastes great. I don't add much spices or herbs, to let the artichokey flavor shine.)
