Cattail roots & eggs
Now for some cattail root cooking. The fresh, sliced roots are very good when you fry them like potatoes! They get brown and crispy on the outsides just like potatoes when pan fried, and taste very similar, too. Just a slightly fibrous version of fried potatoes! A fine breakfast.

Good article. The fried cattail roots look good. Have lots of cattails where we go camping. I may have to try them.
