> I'm going out to search for morels this weekend
I don't have any addictions in my life, but one. That's when morel season is in swing, I am in full hunt mode.
A friend of mine went to a local mushroom picking course and among things they mentioned that morels are difficult to cook from fresh, because of the gastro problems. Apparently, the advice was to dry them before using in recipes.
What's up with that?
To me morels seems just scary enough to avoid completely. I love other forest mushrooms but i'd just avoid morels.
