Does anyone know how inulin powder or Sunchoke syrup is made?

Diversified Food forest maker . Fill every niche and you'll have less weeds (the weeds are the crop too). Fruit, greens, wild harvest, and nuts as staple. Food processing and preservation are key to self self-sufficiency. Never eat a plant without posetive identification and/or consulting an expert.

I dont know much on the subjet. BING-4 hour body by Timothy Ferriss. He has some info on the subjet. Its my understanding that it can be a good source of fiber and lead to a healthy evacuation process. Hope this helps a little. Garth

Jeffery - I've thought of the possibility as well for the futuretimes, whatever they may be...the sunchokes need to have some time to be able to change/convert the inulin to fructose. This can be accomplished by some storage, like curing sweet potatoes and/or very slow cooking - steaming, baking, etc. Then, probably like making flour, dehydrate and grind. There are some references here on the Permies forum for making sunchoke flour, just search 'sunchokes' or 'Jerusalem Artichokes', or even 'Sunchoke Flour', I think, that's where I've seen them.
I also think, you could do much the same way with sunchokes as you could/would with Yacon roots to make Yacon syrup, I have information on the Yacon, if you'd like it or you might do a Google search for 'Yacon Syrup'... This is the info that I have that I just found on Google, click this link ~ http://permaculturesunshinecoast.org/2011/08/02/yacon-syrup/
