Categories     Side Dish     Dinner

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 pound fiddlehead ferns
1 tablespoon fine sea salt (plus more to taste)
2 teaspoons butter (or vegetable oil)
1 clove garlic or small shallot (peeled and sliced thinly)

Steps:

  • Gather the ingredients.
  • Bring a large pot of well-salted water to a boil.
  • Trim fiddlehead ferns, removing any brown ends or mushy parts. Rinse in cool water. Do this just before cooking-the added moisture will make these delicate fronds spoil if done too far in advance.
  • Transfer the fiddleheads to the water and boil until tender, about 15 minutes.
  • Drain and rinse with cold water until cool, or shock in a bowl of ice water to cool, then drain.
  • Arrange in a single layer on clean kitchen towels or paper towels. Pat dry.
  • Heat the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat until it melts. Add the fiddleheads. Cook, stirring frequently, until they start to brown on the edges, about 4 minutes.
  • Add the garlic, and cook, stirring constantly, until garlic is fragrant, about 30 seconds. Salt to taste and serve.

SAUTE THOSE FIDDLEHEAD FERNS



Saute Those Fiddlehead Ferns image

Fiddlehead Fern is picked in the spring when they just pop out of the ground and are still curled looking like the head of a violin. They grow in the northeastern part of the USA and in eastern Canada. Being in Nevada I never expected to see these luscious delicacies again but you can see I was wrong. Trader Joe's had them and I grabbed a package very quickly. The recipe is one I just put together with what I had available. Didn't want to take the time to go to the store for anything else. You can buy sundried tomatoes packed in oil... yum.
