Let’s Cook

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.
Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and barely simmer, partially covered, for one hour.
Remove from heat and cool slightly.
Remove bay leaf.
In a blender, process mixture in batches.
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.
