Course: Side Dishes
Servings: 4 servings

Ingredients

  • 1 package fiddleheads 8oz
  • 2 tsp balsamic vinegar
  • 2 tsp olive oil
  • 1 clove garlic minced
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp cracked black pepper

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Wash fiddleheads in cold water, doing your best to remove the leaf-like ferns. Because fiddleheads are harvested from the wild, wash them a second time to ensure they are clean.
  • Toss in balsamic vinegar, olive oil, garlic, salt and pepper until combined.
  • Spread on a parchment-lined baking sheet then put them in the oven, cooking for 8-10 minutes until they are fully cooked. Fiddleheads should retain a bit of crunch to them so don't overcook them!
  • Serve and enjoy right away - best with a white wine, chicken or even as a side dish to steak.
