It's happy time in Michigan again: Morel season!

I grilled some nice thick ribeyes for me and Mrs. Dread last night, then smothered them in carmelized red onions and lightly fried-in-butter morels from our woods.

My dad would bring home grocery bags full of morels. He had his honey holes, knew when they were popping up, and was very happy that us kids didn't like them. I can remember my mom and dad feasting on huge platters of morels.

Oh my, Ribeyes are the best steaks for grilling.

The Morels are a delicacy, and they also happen to be a good source of potassium, iron, and vitamin D.

Stay hungry my friends..............

Morels are divine.... (I just hope you meant "sauteed" and not "fried" in butter?) :hororr:

Yeah, my bad, I meant lightly "Sauteed." In a cast iron frying pan.

Cut in half, soaked in salt water, dried, dusted with flour and fried in oil until golden brown. Drain on some paper towels, lightly salt and eat while hot.

My mom wasn't a fancy cook, but she could FRY morels, okra and bluegill with best of them.
