Steps

1

These are fiddlehead ferns. They have a natural bitterness, but there's no need to remove it if you're making tempura.
2

Peel off the outer husk by hand, and if there are any brown parts, cut them off with a knife.
3

Clean the fiddlehead ferns. If they are dirty, rinse them with water; otherwise, wipe them with a damp paper towel.
4

Prepare the tempura batter according to the package instructions, add the fiddlehead ferns, and fry in oil at 355°F (180°C) for about 1.5 minutes.
5

Drain the oil well, sprinkle with salt, and enjoy them hot.
6

If making ohitashi or a salad, remove the bitterness. See the recipe "How to Prepare Fiddlehead Ferns and Koshiabura" Recipe ID: 19713913.
