musical artichokes

[cat]

Hi, I have a bunch of Jerusalem Artichokes we harvested from our garden today. I was all set to cook them when looking for a good recipe I came across one warning after another about how they can give you "severe digestive distress"

I am now too chicken to try them!

Has anyone experienced these most musical veggies and does anyone know of a way to make them less, erm, explosive?

I've got some, but I've never harvested any of them!
