Guest guest Posted May 8, 2008 Report Share Posted May 8, 2008 Diane, That sounds interesting. I just looked them up, very odd looking. We have cabbage palms, from sable palms. yummmy Love and Prayers, PeggyIPF 2004, Florida"Worry looks around, Sorry looks back, Faith looks up." Has anyone on the board ever heard of fiddleheads? It is the unfurled head of a fern which grows here in New Brunswick. It is almost fiddlehead season here and we are anxiously waiting their arrival. I know they grow in Maine and I used to find them in Ontarion when I lived there. I think that they are also found in Australia and New Zealand. They are delicious! We usually boil or steam them and serve with only butter, salt and a bit of vinegar and lemon on the first feed. The second feed is usually fiddleheads with new potatoes and fresh brook trout. Just a little Canadian trivia for you. Diane IPF June 07New Brunswick, CanadaInstant message from any web browser! Try the new Yahoo!

Guest guest Posted May 8, 2008 Report Share Posted May 8, 2008 I think they are delicious but certainly not to everyone's taste. My son loves them and my daughter hates them. They taste something like green beans, artichokes and spinach. I guess when I put it that way, it doesn't sound all that great. Diane IPF June 07New Brunswick, Canada Re: Fiddleheads?
