Todays conversation about Mushrooms, specifically Morels, caught my attention and not because I attended the Univerdity of Arizona, but due to the culinary nature of the 'shrooms. Mac stated he is a big mushroom guy, and started talking Morels. I had Morels once in Vegas at RM (Great high end seafood place at Mandalay Bay) Some Clarified butter and smoked salt is how they made them. BY FAR, best I ever had. Then a few years ago, my job for Turkey Day was to make a side dish, so I got over to Whole Foods, walked around and see the MORELS! I start loading up the bag, as I need enough for 8 people and as we all know Whole Foods, eveything is 25% more, I decide to check out the price as I just grabbed about 5 pounds. $42.99 a pound! I put them down and walked over to the potatoes. Mac living large! Should have an MJH Vegas trip |

As soon as I saw the word Morel, I knew their sticker price was soon to follow. |

Buy them dried, they are slightly more economical and their flavor is more intense. I prefer them to the overrated truffles. Shiitake or Chanterelles are good substitues. Mushrooms are second only to bacon in the Spaulding household. |

Good call, Spaulding! Morels are one of the few products where the freeze-dried version rivals the fresh one. Try shopping at www.morelmania.com The morel soup is totally unbelievable. |

Where I go turkey hunting, there's Morells all over the place. Plenty of dead elms out there. we hunt til noon, then gp out with a shroom stick. We usually come away with 10-15 lbs of the stuff. And I hate mushrooms. I always give mine away. |

These things look like little brains growing in the woods. Why the hell anyone wants to eat one of these things is beyond me. |

Mushrooms are the greatest non-meat-product topping for a pizza (not including cheese or sauce). You know what else are great, breaded mushrooms. Especially the ones from "my guy" at Brown's Chicken. |
