My family loves this delicious soup made with fiddleheads (the tightly curled young fronds from bracken, ostrich and cinnamon ferns). We have been hunting for and harvesting wild edible plants for a number of years now. Fiddleheads are one of the first plants to sprout in the spring.-Karen Grasley, Quadeville, Ontario

[email protected]This fiddlehead soup was an absolute delight! The fiddleheads added a unique and slightly bitter flavor that paired perfectly with the creamy broth. I also loved the addition of bacon, which gave the soup a smoky and savory flavor.
