What a hit! Chef Garcia never fails to impress. This soup was easy to prepare (although it took a while to peel all those sunchokes), delicious to eat. Everyone at the table asked for seconds. The chunky garnish was just the right complement to the smooth soup. What a great introduction to sunchokes!
