In a large pot, melt the butter over medium-high heat. Add the sunchokes, minced garlic, onion, and cook, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned (about 6-8 minutes). Pour in water and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until the quantity of water is reduced by at least half (about 20 minutes).
Pour in milk and continue to cook for another 10 minutes, until the sunchokes are very tender. Remove from the heat.
Puree the sunchokes with an immersion blender until smooth and creamy. Stir in the salt and serve.
