i picked morel mushrooms one summer as a job. you fall into this wierd mushroom trance where you can climb like 5 mountains in a day and just go completely crazy running around snatching up shrooms.

i actually really liked morels, and we ate them in pretty much everything. there's something like 28 different kinds of the little fuckers. they're best when they're dark and bulby shaped, with a thin firm stock. great when added into sauces and pastas. the really big blondes are pretty tasty too...

Sure wood...got to make sure you get all the wildlife out of them though. Small insects love them.

By the time insects hit them, they're not that great anyways. A quick rinse should take any insects off them, which you should be doing anyhow. The best time to pick is right after a small shower. These little suckers will pop up in a matter of minutes. I've hiked uphill and found full 3-4inch mushrooms in my footprints on the way back downhill before. That's when you get the primo eating. If you wait on them to get fatstalked and soft, they're not much good for anything but soup stock. They are a delicacy in a lot of high end european restaurants, and are really quite tasty. I'm craving some fresh morels now.

You should find out if they have a negative effect of any kind.

The only bad effect those have is on the wallet..big time costly over here when they are available

Costly little buggers that are fantastic at hiding in forests.
Damn tasty and very rewarding. Often sell for a small fortune in farmers markets. One of the seasonal items I do so love. Also nice to dehydrate for different usages. I do not care much for freezing them.

GCN · 05-09-2008, 02:02 AM

i dont like mushrooms

Angry Jew Cat - Banned for Life · 05-09-2008, 02:07 AM

Picking morels takes a trained eye and a little knowhow to do well. Here's the secrets of the pros, haha.

Pick on last year's forest fire burns. Seriously. This is where the hardcore shrooms pickers are. They sprout like a motherfucker the year following a burn. it will be hot, it will be dirty, it may very well be dangerous (i had some near death experiences, heh) but you will almost definitely find a shitload of mushrooms, and they are a little easier to spot.

If it is raining, get ready, the second the sun comes out you want to be hiting that hillside fast. Fresh mushrooms are the best, and a fresh dump of rain will pop up a new flush in a matter of minutes.

Once you hit a patch of mushrooms, don't continue uphill, follow along the same elevation traversing the mountainside. They tend to grow at certain elevations.

When you find a thick flush, remember where. Come back after every rainstorm. if you found mushrooms once, you will find them again. Hitting the same spot daily can be rewarding. Pine mushroom pickers will guard flushes like buried treasure. Coming back year after year. Then again, one good flush of Pines can be worth thousand of dollars.

If you're in an area there's morels growing readily, odds are you're in an area where there's already professional mushroom pickers already. Areas with easy access are going to get hit hard. The further backcountry you go, the better your flushes. Top a mountainside and pick the backside. Top two or three and you may just find a goldmine. You may also find a good number of grow ops, Carry on and do not disturb, heh.

Drill holes in your picking pail to allow fresh air to the mushrooms, heat and weight will makes them mushy and they will crush. Don't bounce your pail around anymore than you have to.

Now go pick some mushrooms and enjoy the delicacy without dropping $5-10/lb or more...

GrouchyAdmin · 05-09-2008, 02:09 AM

I remember tetting some of those for a hefty price. Do those also inhibit the body from processing alcohol? I had, shit, I don't remember what, but like $10 for 4 mushrooms, and drank 2 glasses of wine once to "disprove" that it kept your liver from working.

I don't remember the last time I was that sick.
