It's about that time again...has anyone spotted any morels yet this year? And while I'm at it, would anyone be interested in meeting up for a mushrooming expedition? I'm in Olympia but will travel for morels. I know 'em when I see 'em but have little experience actually finding them, so going out with someone who knows where to look would be awesome.

They're up for sure. Our interns have found a few patches up here on Orcas (which we've scarfed down with great gusto). Of course there are probably better hunting grounds near Olympia.

There's a great website on Morels called the Great Morel that maintains a sighting map each year:

It's a pretty awesome resource, you can see where and when across the states morels have been sighted which is great for knowing when's a good time to go looking...

I found some in Burien along the side of the road, but they were dusty and had been sprayed. I picked a few and threw them in my backyard. You never know....the spores might have the right environment!

what i'm wondering, is has anyone ever found anything better to do with them than bread and fry them? they are soooooo good like that, but how about some variety? the flavor tends to get lost in complicated recipes, soups, etc. any ideas? i sauteed some up in butter and at that over freshly boiled ravioli, that was good. i bet cream of mushroom soup with morels would be good.
