fiddlehead ferns
Prep Time: 5 mins
Cook time: 5 mins
Total Time: 10 mins
LINC BOX INGREDIENTS
2 cups fresh fiddlehead ferns, washed, dried
PANTRY INGREDIENTS
2 tablespoons olive oil or unsalted butter
1 teaspoon Meyer lemon (or blood orange) to taste
1 teaspoon Meyer lemon zest (or blood orange)to taste
Dash of sea salt
DIRECTIONS:
Wash fiddleheads making sure they are absolutely clean, then cut off any tough stems.
Heat the olive oil or butter. Add the fiddleheads, a pinch of salt and saute' gently for about 5 minutes or just until tender.
Turn off heat. Layer in the citrus juice and the zest very light to accent the fiddleheads.
Taste and adjust seasoning. Serve while warm.
Helpful Hints:
If you have bigger fiddleheads or you just prefer something a little less crunch you can give the fiddleheads a light blanch before you saute' them. Can’t find a Meyer lemon or blood orange? No worries you can use a regular lemon or orange. Be aware that you will have to adjust the amount as this will change the flavor profile a bit. This works as a great side dish especially with lamb or enjoyed on a baguette.
