Fiddlehead Ferns With Escargot Butter image

This is a great way to prepare those delightful fiddlehead ferns that are picked in the spring. If you prefer your fiddleheads softer, boil them for a longer time. The time listed in the recipe leaves the fiddleheads crunchy. Very yummy!!!

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover escargot butter. I also added some chopped fresh herbs to the butter, which gave it a nice pop of flavor.
