This is a tasty springtime soup that is so delicious, We love fiddleheads here , and it's nice to have a few different recipes to use them. The soup is very good.

2 tablespoons butter or 2 tablespoons oil
4 cups chicken stock
1 1/2 cups potatoes, peeled, diced
2 cups cleaned fiddleheads
1 bay leaf
salt and pepper, ot taste
1 1/2 cups milk
yogurt
grated lemon rind or chives
Directions:
1. In a large heavy bottom saucepan, sauté onion in butter or oil until soft but not brown, about 5 minutes. Add potatoes, fiddleheads, bay leaf, and enough chicken stock to make the vegetables just swim.
2. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and barely simmer, partially covered, for one hour. Remove from heat and cool slightly. Remove bay leaf.
3. In a blender, process mixture in batches. (Can be prepared to this point a day or two ahead of time. Cool, cover and refrigerate.).
4. Return mixture to saucepan and slowly bring to a simmer, stirring frequently. Add milk, a little at a time, until it reaches the consistency you like. Add salt and pepper to taste. Serve in heated soup bowls, garnish as desired.
