Biggest Morel I have ever seen.

My wife found this one down the hill by the ponds. Tis a bit past prime methinks.

Thats what those things are called? I found some growing in my yard except they are more orange and I thought they were like poisonous mushrooms. Tried to do research but I couldnt find anything. What exactly are they?

If you find them in a store they are a MINT! Our local grocery has them by the pint, they are 11.99, mind you they are all very small morels at that, and they "pint" is only half full.

Do they make you trip sack?

We have been eating them for a couple weeks, collected off our property. Last nights supper; chicken thighs baked in onions, peas & carrots from our garden & morels.

Looks like a McDonalds hashbrown to me, looks yummy though. My palate might not be quite as refined though lol.

The peas were frozen from last summer & the carrots were stored since last fall in damp wood shavings in the cold cellar. I did not plant peas this year as it was too wet to get them in when they should have been planted (mid April).

The skinless thighs were seasoned & buried under sliced onions in a covered dish & baked in the oven @ 350°F for an hour. The tater patty was bought from the frozen food section of a grocery store.

I picked up some cheap macro tubes just for spring mushroom season. Here's a black morel from my neck of the woods.
