Fiddleheads, Foraging Wild Edibles

[@NomadicWoodsman]

I forgot to mention, you can boil the fiddleheads in two changes of clean water to be absolutely sure the toxins are out, the heat of one boil is fine but 2 is just an extra precaution. This website explains very well the storage and cooking process: www.ontariowoodlot.com/publications/featured-articles-news/harvesting-fiddleheads-on-woodlots

[@pawitneysoper7987]

Nomadic Woodsman awww 😊 too bad I’m so Exciting I want to eat this so bad you from Canada I live in USA Colorado last year we were in Canada 🇨🇦 in July for two weeks

[@quintonayaan4440]

a tip : you can watch movies at flixzone. I've been using them for watching all kinds of movies lately.

[@kaleblawrence976]

@Quinton Ayaan Yea, been watching on Flixzone for months myself =)

[@natureboreale4709]

Superbe vidéo, bien faite, bien expliquée. Décor magnifique, beaux oiseaux, c'est comme si on y étaient! C'est bon d'avoir insisté sur le fait de ne pas tous les cueillir pour permettre au plant de survivre.

[@NomadicWoodsman]

Merci du commentaire c'est très gentil ! Je ne sais pas si tout le monde sont au courant qu'il ne faut pas trop cueillir cette plante. Étant donné qu'on cueille la feuille et non pas le fruit, la plante est plus affecté. Faut être respectueux de ce que la nature nous offre et en prendre soin quand on peut ! :) Merci encore. À plus !

[@mushercdn]

Great video. Good camera work on the birds. The shots of the shovelers and the bluewings were really impressive. thanks for sharing.

[@NomadicWoodsman]

Thanks alot I really appreciate it :) I wasn't sure of the names of those birds thanks ! :)

[@bebeximenes9179]

It’s call Kabura in our country Timor-Leste 🇹🇱, we used to sauté it with garlic 🧄 and put bit of lime and eat 😋 yummmmmm

[@michaelarc3856]

I use to salute in a little bear grease ,hum hum

[@Wombats-1]

It’s always interesting to see that people have walked the earth and thought to themselves “I wonder what would happen if I ate that weird looking thing” I’ve seen these hunting for mushrooms, didn’t know they are actually delicious. Back to the woods I go

[@Dishsoapdirt1976]

I never boiled fiddleheads before eating. Usually just fry them. Never had any issues.

[@deancunkelman8378]

Great video. Thanks for sharing. Love the little stove. I assume you made that. I need to see if you have a video on making one. Thanks again

[@NomadicWoodsman]

Thanks ! No that stove I have bought from a company in Alaska who makes them. They are better made than what i could accomplish. Nomadic stove company I believe it is who make the ''bush buddy twig stove''. Solo stove also have a model similar but a bit bigger.

[@LittleBird777]

what a beautiful video, nature at its very best, interesting to learn about the ferns too :)

[@brianspencer4220]

Hi Nomad: This is a really complete review of the fiddle head famous phenominum. Thanks Brian 76

[@NomadicWoodsman]

Thanks Brian. There's a lot of things to say on this plant, hopefully this info. is useful for someone :) Have a nice weekend !

[@potatothorn]

great info and lots of awesome nature scenes with it excellent video

[@NomadicWoodsman]

Thanks ! I appreciate it ! :)

[@kailyanupnorth4924]

Can you share some spots please.

[@NomadicWoodsman]

I only know a few spots, and they are hard to find in northeast Alberta. Look around streams and ponds where poplars grow and it is muddy. You want to look for the brown fronds who are apparent all year. Go bushwacking and stay safe :). Which area/country are you in ? Matteucia struthiopteris might not grow in your area.

[@MrGoosePit]

Awesome video. I really enjoyed it. Thanks!

[@TheWildYam]

Yum! Great day for lunch in the bush. I really enjoyed the wildlife footage too. Morels out near you yet?

[@NomadicWoodsman]

Thanks ! I seen lots of False-Morel mushrooms around but I haven't found a good patch of Morels yet. I will try to hunt for some next week ! :)

[@rollzolo]

Are their poisonous look alike? My backyard is blessed with them.

[@NomadicWoodsman]

Yes, not all ferns are edible. Please be cautious and identify your plants carefully or even ask some experts in your area. Alot of other ferns are toxic.

[@ERLong-ww7yn]

The brown coming out of your fiddleheads isn't toxins. It's the silt and dirt that should be washed out before cooking. Also Fiddleheads are supposed to be boiled for 10-12 minutes before eating.

[@justingrosz9809]

Definitely the dirt and soil, not toxins... Wouldn't see toxins, good video though

[@RedBlueCard]

Hi, I am located in the NYC area, do you think these are available here, our weather Zone is 7

[@NomadicWoodsman]

I'm not sure I am not in that area. Try some of your local foraging groups ! If there are some they will be around creeks or along shore of ponds where water goes up. They like water and clay or muddy bottom.

[@RedBlueCard]

@@NomadicWoodsman Thx for your inputs, when I put the Keyword Foraging on FB, only my next state (CT) come up. Upstate New York has too few people to form a group. I will try to see if there sell in on Amazon, would like to grow this at home.

[@elibennett3034]

Great video. Thanks!

[@NomadicWoodsman]

Glad you liked it!

[@TeacherSBD]

What a coincidence, I put on a vid about the same plant a few days ago, and now the fiddleheads are already too wide open to be edible. Bon appetit :-)

[@NomadicWoodsman]

Merci :) Yes when you get the right temperatures, they seem to grow very fast. Hard sometimes not to miss it ! Thanks for watching I will have to go check out your video on the Fougère à l'autruche !

[@yanlap2183]

cardinal à poitrine rose, très rare. merci. beau vidéo

[@NomadicWoodsman]

[@geogetruong6085]

[@nickmuffin1722]

Awesome video sir! This was so soothing... I subscribed!

[@NomadicWoodsman]

Thanks and welcome ! :)

[@smallestJustice]

hey, Nomandic Woodsman. good having you back. this scenic views are reminding me of last spring visit Canada BC of green leaves-prone cover valleys and young strenuous river stream flow in rattle path. Thanks, you just remind me of myself having a memorable business journey ahead of time. back to footage you made, I thought you are gonna catch frog and put that into the pot or hydrate to turn out jerky snack on your mountain trip. just thought. I honestly don't know how, do you? Evidently your homestead is filled with spring energy and you are senselessly enjoying it I can feel that through your footage. Good deal and good having you in your channel. I am trying to escalate French culture, manner, thought, and a really really simple talks. do you happen to suggest any material I can look it up? some say if we know English culture well, then it seems easier done i don't know it yet. I am just longing for in my mind and another just don't know how to start off.

[@NomadicWoodsman]

BC is really beautiful indeed. Thanks for watching and commenting. For learning french, I wouldn't have any tips really, I guess it is good to practice and hear it lots. Ideally you could travel to french places like Québec or France or watch movies and shows in french also helps ! :) Glad you enjoyed the video. Cheers.

[@smallestJustice]

woodsman, you darn right about beautiful BC, indeed. does it happen to you as if I was like electric pole stood up for awhile at a gas station, what happened to me was I pumped the gas and one slanderous uniform female walked by me, it was impeccable moment, I wasn't even able to know what was I doing it, all my eyes and nerve already followed this one angelic charm, yah beautiful indeed. I am really wondered what she is I meant what race she is from. she is rarest untouchable to me, I meant influential inspiration from her is a 'pure tidiest; uniform, hair style, walking, gesture, make up which all are well balance with her facial appearance and body shape. is this kind of beauty you ever happen meet to personal experience in BC? I am big guessing she must be French breed or Scandinavian ancestry of her height. it never happened to me have figure wonderings pop out of self curious balloon over top of my head. I was like frozen mummy statue in ICE-age.

It’s “gobee” in Korea,

[@LadyTSurvival]

your making me hungry lol

[@jimf2525]

You got a like from me for fire safety. Stamp out fires.

[@IslaHeaney]

Toxins? Draining out.... might not be the most accurate word

[@fishgeralding9224]

Way too much misinformation, don't are about frogs and birds, I began watching for information on fiddleheads. Another painfully slow video full of misinformation. Everybody wants to be a video star. I know, how about getting rid of the ego and simply put out some useful information?
