Dried Wild Morel Mushrooms are said to have a unique earthy taste with a flavor that goes well with veal, chicken, and pork.

Morel mushrooms are “hunted” for their taste and the “joy of the hunt” by thousands of people yearly. They have been called “dryland fish” because they tend to have a flavor similar to fish.

Morel mushrooms have a distinctive honeycomb-like appears and are typically sold dried or canned.

They tend to grow around ash, sycamore, tulip, dead and dying elms, and old apple trees. Morel mushrooms are known to grow in regions affected by forest fire within two to three years after a fire.
