Ingredients:

Serving

1/2 lb fiddlehead ferns (11563), each about 1 1/2 inches in diameter
1 tbsp butter
1/2 tbsp ( fresh) lemon juice or to taste
1 salt and pepper to taste

Directions:

Trim the tails so that the coils are even.
Soak the fresh fiddleheads in cold water and swirl to remove the brown outer coating.
Bring 1/2 inch of water to a boil in a shallow pan. Add the butter, lemon juice, and the fiddleheads. Spread out so that the ferns are in a single layer as much as possible.
Reduce the heat to a simmer, cover, and cook for about 10 minutes or until the fiddleheads are fork tender.
Season to taste with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with 1/4 tsp fresh thyme, if using, and serve.
