Fiddlehead Season in Manitoba

It is fiddlehead season!  Of course it has to be raining while I pick.  There is nothing like a cold rain running down the back of your neck to turn a fun excursion in the woods into a “Man, I hate my life” experience.   The picking was good though, and we had a spur of the moment fiddlehead feast the other night.  The other thing about fiddlehead season is that it happens to fall right in the middle of our spring rush with our regular happenings.  When you smoke bacon, plant cucumbers, pick fiddleheads, deliver hogs, and take care of the greenhouse, incubator and animals all in one day, things start getting interesting.  And that was just me.  Heather has to mind the store, take care of kids (4 plus me), and manage a business.  Like I have said before, this lifestyle suits my attention span perfectly.

Here is the fiddlehead recipe I used (made up) for our Sunday night treat.

1. Pick fiddleheads.

2. Get someone to wash them. (A wife is perfect for this.)

3. Open a beer and light the BBQ.

4. Get the same person who washed the fiddleheads to put them in a BBQ safe pan with some butter and sliced garlic.  Someone also took the time to slice up some Kurbis Country garlic sausage and throw it in.

5. Put the fiddleheads on the BBQ for about 15 minutes.  This is a good amount of time for the aforementioned person to make some pasta or something.


6. Voila! A perfect meal that you can take pride in because you are a hunter/gatherer.
