Hey Dan

We need to do some trading this year!

 

I will be out . I am the only one in my family that likes them so i end up selling a bunch and usually end up with 20+ lbs. they are like gold around

 

i need to find them first,my spots have been just so so the last 2 years but i really think this will be a good year. if i find a good hall of them this year i will let you know.

 

they are like gold everywhere!!!

 

I've always wanted to try these but I don't know anyone that hunts them /DesktopModules/ActiveForums/themes/_default//emoticons/sad.gif

 

you can often times find them at open air markets durring the season.

 

I picked up 15 lbs last season... so i'm hoping to do it again this year!!

 

Craig, you'll have to bring some into the store for me! How do people cook these anyways? Any good recipes?

 

We just soaked them well to get all the bugs off, rolled in flour, and fried in butter.

 

Stuff them with Grazionos sausage and cheese then bake them. Mmmmm....Im excited!

 

mmmmmmmmmmmm!!!!!!!!  Did someone say mushrooms. Morells are so awesome. Can't wait

 

I dip mine in egg and then cracker crumbs then fry them bad boys up in butter. Mmmmmmm can't wait! I think i'll go look this afternoon.

 

+1 - definitely egg then cracker crumbs... going to head out this afternoon as well!

 

Where's all the fungus at? Found a few a couple nights ago. Gonna hit em' hard today.

 

Found 30 today, good mix of greys and yellows...yum!

 

so where does one find said mushrooms.  I have never had them and i have heard they are hard to find this year.  im not asking for your hunting spots, i wouldnt think of it,  what im looking for is what type of places are good place to find them?

 

really bad year, depending on where you are I guess, but I found 1!!! yes 1.

 

On the ground.  /DesktopModules/ActiveForums/themes/_default/emoticons/tongue.gif
Most people will tell you to look on hills around elm trees.  Hickory Hills is supposedly a good spot but is hunted by lots of folks.
Just get out in the woods and look around, if you find any kind of mushrooms growing, to me that's a good indicator morels will be there as well.
