First morels of the season! Jackpot!
Aside from the 50 or so ticks I picked off of me (no pain, no gain) I had good luck on this first fruiting of 2008. On April 19 I spent 4 hours in the woods. Here's the yield:
- over 20 Verpa Bohemicas - small and delicate.
- 16 Morchella angusiceps - nice, 3" classic black morels
- One solitary Morchella esculenta - small but lovely and meaty
Sunday morning I had these mushrooms with homemade Missouri small-farm raised pork sausage with lots of sage in natural casings. A breakfast fit for a king.
Where did I find the morels? In the woods, of course!
