NOTES : In the introduction to the “As Life Unfurls” section, Molly O’Neil
wrote: “Delicate and changeable as they are, fiddleheads should not be
misconstrued as low maintenance. Their fibrous stems need to be snipped and
the tight fronds must then be soaked and soaked again to wash away the tawny
parchment shreds that protect each strand from the cold. The tight coils
then need to be cooked, most gently.”
