Mushrooms in general have a strong following, but also a very vocal base of haters. The Morel suffers at the hands of the unfamiliar, nevermind that they are not as popular as the Shiitake or the Portobello. This is due in part to the fact that the availability is not only localized, but very short. There are two types of Morels, the West Coast Black Morel, and the mid-western blonde Morel. The season runs, generally, from April 1 to May 1. With such limited availability, the Morel is not an inexpensive mushroom, but it is one of the most unique. Their distinctive honeycomb look, woodsy aroma, and tart wild flavor are to be enjoyed in the purest preparation, sautéed with a little butter and served hot. Morels aren’t the stand-alone fungi, as Portobello can be, and are best served as a compliment to baked fresh fish or a heady, herb-encrusted fowl.
sorry but I don't eat Fungus...
or bait for that matter.
