Hunted about 1.5 hrs. Still way to early for deep woods. May apples and red buds starting to bloom on the edges. Should be no more than a week or 2 for prime time depending on the weather in my area of south west Indiana.

I have found mushrooms from Tenn. alllway to 1500 miles north into Canada even while on fly in fishing trips. Morels are the prize delacacie and around here were even going as high as 80 bucks a pound last year on the yellow morels which will pop up in a couple of weeks.
Making my mouth water. Now I can't decide which way to go. To the woods this weekend or to the lake. Some shrooms dipped in flour & fried to a crisp does sound delicious.

That is prime eating right there
mild Winter so spray down as tics are lousy this year! Especially for turkey season coming up last of this month also.
You might try a batch this year without soaking them. Same process of cutting in half but just a quick rinse and layout on towel to dry before cooking. Brings out the flavor a little more and they will be firmer. Just my opinion, give it try. I go as far as to string all my morels up like a popcorn string and hang to dry for up to a week sometimes. I then store in containers and use them in cooking. Super smoky, earthy flavor comes out after drying. Good meals ahead!Quote:

Yep, I have lightly soaked them or just washed them off before when they are not buggie. I have dehydrated them and stored in glass jars, then rehydrated and used. The wife has floured, then froze them on a cookie sheet, then vacumn sealed them but I find that way it’s better to use and fry them within 2-3 months when she stores a few that way. Great eating so get them at this time of the year when the morels show up.
Great job on finding some . I need to get out myself
