Instructions
1
Peel the Jerusalem artichokes and place them in a bowl of cold water with 2 tsp vinegar to prevent browning. Reserve a couple of artichokes and place the rest in a pot.
2
Pour in 1 dl cream and add enough water to barely cover the artichokes. Simmer until completely tender.
3
Drain most of the cooking liquid into a bowl and reserve it. Blend the artichokes with an immersion blender or in a food processor until smooth. Thin with the reserved cooking liquid to your desired soup consistency.
4
Add the remaining cream and bring back to a simmer. Season with salt, pepper, and a few drops of lemon juice.
5
Slice the reserved artichokes thinly and pat dry with paper towels. Heat the oil in a skillet and fry the slices until crisp and golden, about 3-4 minutes. Drain on paper towels and sprinkle with salt.
6
Ladle the soup into four deep bowls and top with the fried artichoke chips, chopped parsley, and pumpkin seeds.

Serve with thin slices of cured ham on the side.
