  1. as a potato i find jerusalem artichokes a dissappointment. but if you fix them as if they were artichokes, they are lovely. smother them in garlic mayo or garlic butter, and you will enjoy them. also, the survive german winters in the ground, so they should do well doing the same in poertugal. only harvest what you can eat in 3 days, they do not store well.

  2. It’s great to see you being positive and carrying on regardless, that’s the spirit. Live in the moment, that’s all we have and you are all doing great. Did you investigate go fund me? Looking forward to Wednesday.

  3. Sorry to hear your having a tough time with the system!.. if you had turned up in a rubber boat with nothing! you get the world handed to you on a plate!,, keep going and good luck!..

  4. Ugh, I’m so sorry you guys are going through this! We came over to Portugal a little over a year ago and have driven all over the country multiple times, looking for where to buy. In doing so, we’ve seen numerous abandoned villages, which are either dead or on their way out. The country needs you, and others like you, willing to revitalize and bring life to these areas!
    Totally understand the frustration (and idea to move to Morocco!). I’m positive things will work out in your favor, hopefully sooner than later.

    Also, note to Missy – been meaning to comment how your positivity and style are always uplifting to watch. Don’t let this bureaucracy dim your light. ✨

    Hang in there, guys! 💕

  5. Agree with others on the Jerusalem artichokes, beware of constant wind if you eat too much. We gave up growing them on our allotment for this very reason. Mind you, didn't know about the milk thingy and they do have a lovely flavour. Good luck! 💨 😄
    Hope your visa situation works out good for you. 🙏 💟

  6. About Jerusalem artichoke: they are named "the forgotten vegetable". why ? when eating them you can have some gas build of, to avoid that, you must add a lot of milk in your water to reduce it.

  7. Holding thumbs and have everything crossed for your appeal. Karma will prevail. Roast the artichokes slowly on your fire in foil until they go very soft, mushy & caramelised. Yummy!

  8. I just leave the tubers in the ground now and they seem to be fine. You could always mulch the area if it was in a frost pocket. When I did dig them all up, I noticed that the Chinese variety sent out runners which would lead to another tuber deeper in the ground. The White Truffle variety seemed to be more localised to the base of the plant.

  9. About Jerusalem artichoke:
    Make them in the owen with garlic and oil or with potatoes in a gratin with cream.
    You can leave some of them in the soil over the winter. Here in Sweden we just leave them and they can endure as low as – 25 grC. But, beware of the effect of the inulin that is in the fruit. Dont eat too much or too many otherwise you will get very fartish. 🥴
