The Scottish have been cooking with whiskey forever and now I’ve tried it - it is clear why! This whiskey sauce just goes so well with the creamy butter bean and jerusalem artichoke puree. If you struggle to get hold of jerusalem artichokes, you can swap them out for another root veg such as parsnip or turnip.
