Yes, definitely can make the soup with just sunchokes and potatoes. I am so jealous of all that you are harvesting from your garden already. I'm a little behind here but am making progress. A post on my garden should be up tomorrow. A seed exchange between blogging friends from other countries.... I like that idea! Maybe I"ll have to organize something. :) Isn't Amelie such a wonderful movie?? Sigh.... Gintoino - Thanks! Yes, definitely can make the soup with just sunchokes and potatoes.

I too am a fan of red lentils. I made the red lentil and sweet potato chili from Eat, Drink and Be Vegan a few times this winter and it always perfectly hit the spot. That looks delicious!

I agree, there is something so pleasing about their shape, like confetti or those lovely pastel sprinkles that are shaken over frosted cupcakes. I love the red ones especially for their quick cooking time and that with the right seasonings, you can make a creaming, filling soup/porridge in no time at all. This sounds wonderful and as you have me wanting to try all the root veggies I have ignored thus far in my life - this will be on the agenda for the weekend. I am really looking forward to when you can harvest your easter egg radishes - never heard of them and can't wait to see them. Are you going to do heirloom tomatoes or any of the varieties of beets?

I onle have a problem (that you seem to have too) where am i going to get the burdock root to do it? Do you think it will be ok just with the potatoes and sunchokes? I'm so glad to read you have started your garden, I can't wait to ear(read) more about it! Here I'm collecting the last of the broad beans, strawberries and letucces. I sowed parsnips yesterday (a good blogging friend sent me seeds from Holand), I hope they sprout. (BTW...Amelie is my favourite too :-)) jennie that soup looks delicious!.
