Fiddleheads are harvested from northern B.C., usually in May for two to three weeks. This product is high in iron, potassium and vitamin "C". They are very tasty - a cross between almond and asparagus.
Three ounces of fiddleheads supplies 71% of the recommended daily dietary allowance of vitamin A, 46% of vitamin C, 25% of Niacin and 13% of Riboflavin, as well as at least 10% of magnesium, phosphorus and iron plus other nutrients and trace elements.
Low in sodium yet high in potassium, Fiddleheads are a good source of fibre and appropriate for low salt diets.
When not available fresh, they are available frozen.
If you wish to use them fresh, boil for ten minutes and
add them to any dish that requires vegetables.
