Fiddleheads are young, edible, fern shoots that are gathered when they are still curled. These greens are nutritious – high in vitamin A, vitamin C & iron; a good source of potassium; low in calories, fat & cholesterol.
Described often as a cross between asparagus and broccoli, its flavor is unique.
Ruma's delivers nationwide from our facility just outside of Boston, MA; we also broker to restaurants and chefs.
