Thanks y'all. Regarding the fiddleheads, I just blanch them awhile, rinse and either steam or saute. Salt, pepper and butter. I like grilled asparagus so I bet these would be good blanched and skewered also.
Last year I found a very strange area that produced morels and being that it's wide open I figured I'd see if any early poppers were showing.
Area's going to really turn on here in the next week or so.

Glad you are getting them a little earlier this year!
Are those from the sand dunes area?

I love Fiddle heads. Mixed in with some fresh morels gotta be just a fine feast.

Hey there Rex!! Long time no chat! Great finds there! Say, I've found what I thought were fiddleheads, but they had a thin fuzzy skin on the outside of them that we had to remove before cooking. Now, don't tell me, we had the wrong fern or something. My husband ate a ton of them, and lived to hunt again! lol Let me know your thoughts on that one.
Thanks!!

Nope, you got the right ones princess. That fuzzy skin is one of the keys in identifing fiddleheads.

rex, am i seeing things? it looked like i saw a couple of black/brown morels in that 1st pic. maybe it was just the lighting.
