Halftail,

Yes indeed they are very young ferns with a tight compact head resembling the head of a violin. Usually harvested here in late April or early May. Go nicely with trout. Later in the season indian potato a.k.a. wild cucumber go well with fresh trout also.

[Halftail]

How do you cook them?

 

[Don]

Steaming fiddleheads is probably the best way. But I suppose you could saute them with butter too. Indian cucumbers are best washed and eaten raw.

What do fiddleheads taste like?

 

[Don]

Sort of like asparagas.

That does'nt help much...never ate asparagas. Don't think I wanna try either, due to the last part of that word "gas". don't need none of that!

Upsets Mrs. Blahman too!

 

[Don]

Well Blahman what can I say. If you want a culinary adventure and the bed to yourself for a night try some fiddleheads. Or you can eat some asperagas and play turtle with the Missus.

Good Luck

Don
