英语词汇fiddlehead ferns的起源、历史背景-英语词源词典

fiddlehead ferns. These delicious greens, the young furled heads of various fern species, taste something like a combina- tion of asparagus, broccoli, and artichokes and are so named because their delicate fronds resemble the head of a fiddle. Leg- end has it that when Adam and Eve were banished from the Garden of Eden, the Archangel Gabriel guarded the gate through which they left to earn their bread by the sweat of their brows in the wilderness. Stepping aside to let them pass, Gabriel brushed a wing against a boulder and a feather dropped to the ground. The feather took root and grew into the fiddlehead fern, which has ever since been sacred to the archangel.
