The topinambur or sunchoke or earth apple, or Jerusalem artichoke is a tuber like potato, a vegetable of the same family but different.
The name comes from Tupinambas, a tribe from Brazil, some members were seen in Paris in 1613 and have been associated wrongly with this plant discovered at the same time but which comes from North America.
