In this book they explain the nuts and bolts of cultivation, harvesting, reproduction, and storage. A number of practical tips make it easy to successfully grow them, both for amateur and for professional gardeners who are curious to discover new plant cultures.The recipe part offers creative ideas on how to prepare them. Jerusalem artichoke cream soup, tagliatelle with crosne, crispy yacon cookies – delicious root vegetables revive the autumn and winter meal plan. Next to the valuable substances they contain, they have several beneficial effects on our health. Things that have been long-known in the folk medicine of their countries of origin are now unveiled to us with the help of this book.
