@jepkbr, hello! Fiddlehead is a fern that usually grows in the northeastern US, you can buy them at Whole Foods. It's sort of like an asparagus but with a much different shape. If you want you could substitute the fiddleheads for asparagus in this recipe and it'll probably still taste good. As for how to prepare fiddleheads, its best to boil them for about 15 mins. Hope that helps! Thanks for comments.
