Fiddleheads
If you see these in the market:
buy some! These are fiddleheads, which are actually the shoots of the ostrich fern. They are a short-lived delicacy.
Steam them lightly, add a light squeeze of fresh lemon juice, and serve with a bold nut-based sauce.
Early Spring is fiddlehead season! These are foraged, not commercially grown usually.

Wow, I had never known about this!
