Fresh and Fancy Fiddlehead Quiche

May 13, 2013

Fiddleheads are a traditional Maine treat, found in the local grocery stores in early spring. I found them today for the first time this year. They were $4.99 a pound, and worth every penny. 

Eaten mostly as a steamed side, fiddleheads are amazing as an ingredient in many dishes. Try them in this recipe for Fiddlehead Quiche.
