Morel Season.

It's mid Morel Mushroom season, and as usual I can't find a single one. I've never been able to find them.

I have no trouble finding Cepes, Girolles, Parasols, etc; but Morels, non!

Nature has decided that these delights are for others to enjoy; NOT for Cro!

  1. Just the possibility of being able to find some morels seems good enough to me.

    Recently I dined at a high-end Seattle restaurant and ordered a housemade pasta with morels -- there were two or three truffle-sized shavings of morels on the half-cup of pasta, all centered on a MASSIVE plate. Hrmph. Won't be going back there any time soon.

  6. When we were kids Dad used to take us Morel and Puffball hunting in a friends bush lot. Always found lots. Then we would come home and he would cook them up for us. (not rubbing it in of course) I personally never found any but Dad just seemed to have an eye.
    As for the dog, train him to find MONEY then you can buy as many morels as you please. (I know, not the same as finding them yourself)

  7. Gypsies used to start small fires on the forest floor to encourage the sprouting of next year's morels. The only one I have ever found was right outside my workshop, on a piece of ground where a stolen car had been torched. Try having a small fire?

  8. I've never had a morel so I can't feel your pain. But I do hope you'll strike it rich someday.
