Question

Can you just freeze fiddleheads whit out Blanche them just freeze them in a plastic bag?

Answer 1

yes, you can do that

Answer 2

Yes, you can, but it is not the recommendation of the University of Maine Cooperative Extension.  As you know, Fiddleheads are a Maine delicacy.  

To freeze fiddleheads, prepare them as you would for the table. Blanch a small amount at a time for two minutes. Cool and drain. Pack into moisture- and vapor-proof containers and store them in the freezer.
