Last week was mostly cool and breezy here in Central Missouri. We had a couple rounds of showers move through during the week. 1.1" from one and .3" from the other. It's setting up to be a good year for finding morels.

I'm going to stay out of the woods today and try to get something done out in the new garden patch. Maybe set the posts for the new hoop house...

Ooooo! Jealous! :) We had local ‘reports’ of Morels popping up here and there when we had our FREAK February/early March THAW this year, but then we had ‘feets and feets’ of snow, so Beau and I lost the will to go look for them i nour woods.

I’m predicting a Bumper Crop of Golden Oyster Mushrooms later this spring and then again in the fall, so all is not lost up here on The Frozen Tundra. ;)

That’s a nice haul! I’m a little behind you in the spring weather area, but I hope to find a small stash of morels this year.

Ahhhhhh! Morels! I have cooked with them just once in my life, I had a small bag of dried Morels, I reconstituted them and included the infused juice in the sauce made with pork medallions!

I sautéed the medallions in butter with thin sliced garlic (with a razor to make it paper thin), salt and pepper, a touch of Grand Mariner, sage, and red wine. Then I removed the medallions, poured the Morel infused water in, and simmered it, adding the reconstituted Morels into it, reducing it down, and then I thickened it with some flour.
