I found this soup to be a bit too rich for my taste. I would probably use less cream next time.

I would recommend using fresh fiddleheads for this soup, if you can find them. They have a much better flavor than frozen fiddleheads.

The flavor of this soup was a bit bland for my taste. I would add more herbs and spices next time.

This soup was surprisingly delicious! I wasn't sure what to expect from fiddleheads, but they were tender and flavorful. The soup itself was creamy and rich, with a hint of sweetness from the carrots and onions. I will definitely be making this again
