<Notes>
- Lady fern fiddleheads have a very delicate flavor that quickly disappears, and it is best to eat them on the day of harvest.
- Lady fern fiddleheads are very similar to kogomi ostrich fern fiddleheads, but more softer in taste and aroma.
- The above nutrition figures are based on information for kogomi (no specific data is found for lady fern fiddleheads) and the assumption that one-third of dressing is consumed.
- Fiddleheads not available? Try this with asparagus! (With lettuce in photo at right)
