Brown Sugar Miso Fiddleheads

1. 1

   1. Wash and pat dry your fiddleheads. Once dried, cut the brown ends off and immediately place in a pot of water to prevent re-browning. (It's best to store your fiddleheads in the refrigerator in a bowl of water until you're ready to use them. This will also serve to clean them.)

   3. Mix together brown sugar, white miso, rice vinegar, ginger, and water until smooth, and set aside. I used frozen ginger to save on prep time.
