BAKED
FIDDLEHEADS
Serves 6
1
pound fiddleheads 3 tablespoons butter 3 tablespoons flour 1 cup
chicken stock 1/2 cup cream 2 egg yolks 2 tablespoons Parmesan
cheese 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
Wash fiddleheads. Cook in
boiling salted water for ten minutes, until partly cooked. Make a sauce by
melting the butter; into which stir the flour, a pinch of salt, the chicken
stock and cream. Then stir in the egg yolks and finally the grated Parmesan
cheese. Stir until all the cheese melts. Do this over a low heat. In a
buttered oven-proof dish put the fiddleheads carefully in layers. Pour sauce
over each layer; sprinkle a little Parmesan on each layer of sauce. Cover
the top layer of fiddleheads with sauce and sprinkle with breadcrumbs. Bake
until sauce is bubbly.
