A few years ago I decided that I wanted to try to grow Fiddlehead Ferns in a damp/marshy area of our property. I purchased a bunch of Fiddlehead Fern plants. This is the first year that they have proliferated enough to finally harvest enough for a meal.
If you don’t have a place to grow these delicious little delicacies, check your local farmers market or health food store. When they come up in the spring they unfurl within a couple of days. Once they are picked or purchased the Fiddleheads will last a few days in the refrigerator. I wrap them in a paper towel and place them in a ziplock bag.
