Chris P. Bacon, one of our new subscribers, stopped by the office this morning to show off a nice mess of morel mushrooms he found in the Rhineland bottom. Mr. Bacon was pretty closed-mouthed about exactly where he found the mushrooms, leading me to wonder if he had been trespassing onto someone else's property or whether he just didn't want to draw a massive crowd of mushroom hunters to his special mushroom hot spot.
I just love fried morel mushrooms, so I was able to talk Mr. Bacon into giving me a pound of the little beauties! I can't wait to get home to fry these babies up for dinner tonight! The way I fix 'em is to clean 'em up real good, cut off a portion of their stems, salt and pepper 'em, dip 'em in egg yoke, then roll 'em in flour and then drop them into a frying pan over medium heat.
If you have a special recipe for morel mushrooms, I would sure like to learn about it. Please let me know how you prefer your morels.

Did Chris find any big red mushrooms like Max found last week?

Jimmy - How did you like your mushrooms?
ReplyDeleteGertrude - Nope, I didn't find any red mushrooms. Maybe Max picked them all!
