*Liz went to the grocery store this afternoon (Kriegers, a small local market with great produce) where even the produce staff asked her what she was going to do with these. Thanks to Jim Peterson's great "Vegetable" book, we at least had a plan. We first cleaned them off and trimmed them slightly and then sauteed the ferns in a little oil, garlic and parsley. They had an asparagus-like texture with a slight bitter component. A definite foodie moment ;)
