I'm just getting ready to chow down on a freshly picked batch of Morel mushrooms.

[HarveyDarkey]

don't ask me anything for a while.

1. Happy Morel!

[Scuba]

2. Lightly sauteed in real butter, I hope!

[HarveyDarkey]

5. Of course

Is there any other way?

[pinboy3niner]

7. That was EXACTLY my thought!

With prices up, though, I only get them on sale.

[HarveyDarkey]

8. Prices up?

You go out in the woods and get them at least that's what I do.

[Scuba]

10. A warm May morning, after a rain.

Wait 'til about 9:30 or a bit later, so they have a chance to grow all morning.


Yumm!

[HarveyDarkey]

12. I'll say

[lastlib]

19. I hate you.....!!

I didn't find a single one this year!

Enjoy 'em for me!!

11. Alas, we don't have many woods here in the SoCal high desert :)

The store mushrooms aren't bad, so I use the white or brown ones for a great side dish.

The portobellos are a very rare treat. When they're grilled, it's like having steak.

[HarveyDarkey]

15. These are Morels. I grill a mean Portobello, but they don't even begin to compare

3. I did shrooms without butter

Earth to Dorris -come in Dorris

[Scuba]

13. Stop laughing. Can't, huh?

[sarge43]

4. Understand

The hands down best meal I ever had was fresh caught pan fried brook trout, morels sauteed in butter, toasted home made bread with wild strawberry jam.

[HarveyDarkey]

6. I could have died right then

and my life would have been complete.

[sarge43]

9. Yes.

It was as close to heaven as I'm likely to get.

14. Lucky bastard! (j/k)

Hopefully we'll be getting some soon too! Happy hunting, indeed!

[HarveyDarkey]

16. Where are you at?

I'm in southern Iowa

[opiate69]

17. Olympia, Washington..

My friend who`s been mushrooming for about 40 years out here has never found any in this part of the state, but we`ve had lots of luck with chanterelles, lobsters, shaggy parasols, matsutakes, deceivers etc.. Supposedly there are some hot morel spots around here, just have to do a little research I think.

[Arugula Latte]

18. I, on the other hand, have no morels.

Or so I've been told.
