Purée of Jerusalem artichokes with foie gras


Purée of Jerusalem artichokes with foie gras
This recipe features a rather unexpected combination that works really well: the distinctive flavour of Jerusalem artichoke with the richness of foie gras.

The combination of flavours and contrast of hot and cold is delicious.
