Fiddle Heads Part 2: The Harvest

Chuck's Fiddle Head 5K walk.
Soaking in water.

Cut and cooked fiddle heads ready to put in jars.
The handful made 4 canning jars of processed fiddle heads!
It's not too late to gather fiddle heads.  Chuck took me for a 3 mile walk this Wednesday and I picked an armload of these fern shoots.  I wrapped them up in damp newspapers and put them in a plastic bag in the refrigerator to be processed the next day!  It will take me about a week to complete the processing and then the fern shoots will be edible.   I love tossing them into stirfry or making them Korean style.  These can be used like regular fern shoots.
