Fiddleheads are the furled frond of a young fern plant. They are seen early in the season, before the fern opens into its full growth. They are a source of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids and are high in iron and fiber content. They are also DELICIOUS! I love them!

This is the first year I have heard of Fiddleheads. Seems I’m hearing about them a lot lately. Good to know they are a source of Omega – 3 and Omega 6 fatty acids plus high in iron and fiber. I’m going to look for them, we love all things green!!! Every time I check your show, Blog and Facebook I learn something.
Thanks
Love them, such a country dish that has become SO she-she
