I have only had fiddlehead ferns once and I loved it. This is a fanastic post. As soon as I can get my hands on some of the ferns, I'm going to make this one for sure. Great post. You've go my 5.


Ive never heard of fiddlehead ferns but this does sound fantastic indeed and your pictures are great ......thank you michael


Great Post! Fiddle heads are tough to find around here. Back east they are more common. Ostrich ferns are the ones I remember eating. I think maybe green beans could be substituted in this recipe. Asian long beans would even resemble them. HTH


If one ambles by shall attack it, throw it in a pot and from all I have read about them...it will be scrumptious..however
you deserve a 5 for this wonderful original recipe. Thanks for the post. joymarie


I've been looking for fiddleheads all spring and haven't found any. This sounds like a great recipe to try if I can get ahold of any.


I just found some as I was looking for some mushrooms. I normally just saute them in a little garlic and squeeze lemon on them. This recipe sounds awesome. Great pics too.. thanks... Jim


How delicious and beautiful, hon! You get a high 5 from me....need to find those fiddlehead ferns. For sure. You amaze me.

This looks just beautiful. The only question is what is fiddlehead fern and where would I get it? I looked at Wal-Mart and HEB. Those are the only two grocery stores out here. :(

The farmer's market starts up soon down here. Do you think they would have this ingredient?
