Also Known As: MORELS, MOREL MUSHROOMS, MOREL MUSHROOM Product Info: Morel mushrooms are honeycomb capped mushrooms that are the delight of the north woods. Morel mushrooms have a wonderful buttery, woodsy flavor that is delicious with beef, game, poultry and seafood. Typically, morels range from 3/4 of an inch to 4 inches in height. Morels have a cream colored base and a dark cap. Typically found in the Pacific Northwest, morels inspire an early spring pilgrimage in a quest for this rare and delicious treat. Although there are many beliefs, it is commonly believed that morels arrive within 20 days after the first spring frost. Hunters of the Morel Mushroom rarely reveal their harvesting locations. Furthermore, if the location of the wild mushroom is not picked clean the mushrooms will return the following spring. Suggested Use: Because of their earthy flavor, morels are often paired with cream or white wine sauces and milder flavored meats, such as veal or chicken. They are also wonderful when partnered with grilled and roasted foods. Ingredients: Morel Mushrooms Basic Preparations: Rinse Morels well, dirt or stones can be lodged in the honeycomb.
