Well, I was going to ask you to send me some cause I have never had one before and am so envious. But it looks like 3 pages of what to do with them gives you way to many ideas so I'm outta luck, lol.

RE: "Now what to do with them? "

jfain, we sometimes get TONS of morels in our neck of the woods and we consider tham a real delicasy!

Follow mama's directions for soaking in salt-water. Sometimes they contain TONS of bugs well hidden in all their dimples and crevices- don't be alarmed by this. The salt water will draw the bugs out.

We simply split them in half, dip in salted egg-wash, roll in cracker crumbs and pan-fry in butter. YUM!

We get a lot of morels here in Ohio too. I go to the roadside farmers markets and buy them in the spring but never in my own back yard! It's like winning the lottery.
