@walkerland showed me the way to cook the fiddle head : our very first forage

So my doc, yes doc, told me about the fiddle heads. But forgot to tell me how to prepare them. Well @walkerland provided several ways to prepare them.

So here are my photos on our forage, all on the back side of our property.

Old dead fern

So what we did was followed the old dead fern stalks to their base to find the fiddle heads.

We filled up our mini buckets and a feed scoop, and headed home.
We dumped them in the sink to wash.
I DO NOT SUGGEST WASHING THEM IN THE SINK!
Holly crap did they make a mess and clog my sink, you need to wash and rinse them a few times.

@alaskatactical wants to pickle some, I want to cook them like “chipped beef/shit on a shingle”.
These would be amazing in a white sauce over noodles.
But you have to cook them and follow the directions on @walkerland s post

Thanks again @walkerland 💗
