Tiny Violins for Tiny Fiddleheads

Why do I feel like a baby killer harvesting fiddleheads? Fiddleheads are the veal of the forest. Regardless of moral dilemmas we ate those tender whips along a mound of hunted oyster mushrooms. Canada says, "Fiddleheads should then be cooked in boiling water for 15 minutes or steamed for 10 to 12 minutes until tender." due to toxicity, aka baby killer revenge. We survived the first spring forage!
