Morel Mushrooms Recipes

SIMPLE FRIED MOREL MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Place halved morel mushrooms in a large bowl; cover with cold, lightly salted water. Refrigerate mushrooms for about 5 minutes to loosen any dirt; pour off salted water, rinse, and repeat twice more. Crevices of the mushrooms may harbor tiny stones or even insects. Thoroughly rinse mushrooms a final time and allow to drain on paper towels.
• Place flour in a shallow bowl.
• Heat vegetable shortening in a large skillet until very hot.
• Roll mushrooms in flour and tap off excess; gently lay mushrooms in the hot shortening.
• Pan-fry until golden brown and flour coating is crisp, 5 to 8 minutes, turning often. Drain morels on paper towels, salt to taste, and enjoy your treasures!

SAUTEED MOREL MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Brush mushrooms clean. Trim ends and cut mushrooms in half lengthwise.
• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add mushrooms, salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper; stir gently with a spatula to evenly coat mushrooms with the oil. Cook, stirring often, until mushrooms begin to brown and soften, 4 to 5 minutes.
• Add shallots and thyme, then turn heat to medium. Cook, stirring often, until shallots soften and just begin to brown, about 4 minutes. Add butter, parsley, and lemon juice; stir to melt butter and blend ingredients.
• Remove from heat and sprinkle with lemon zest and additional black pepper if desired. Serve hot.
