FRIED MORELS (FRIED WILD MUSHROOMS)
This could be a main dish, side dish, or just a snack. The best part of this is actually going out into the timber/woods to look for the mushrooms (which is somewhat relaxing), or you can find someone who has done all the leg work and pay them (2003 going price) $25 per pound. These are very popular and somewhat of a delicacy around these parts (midwest), since they can only be enjoyed once a year when the mushrooms are in season (late April/early May). These are VERY rich, and can cause unwanted "side effects" if you eat to many!! Once you eat them, you will know your limit. I put no amounts for the ingredients because you never know how many you will find, and you must adjust the recipe for the amount of mushrooms you have!! ENJOY!!

SIMPLE FRIED MOREL MUSHROOMS
These mushrooms are a treasure of the woods hunted by many in the early spring here in Missouri. Simple and quick to fry and enjoy. Finding these can be very hard to find in the woods but well worth the work once you get a mess of them to eat.

HEAVENLY FRIED MOREL MUSHROOMS
These wild mushrooms are amazing. Its become hard to find them in our area where they used to grow wild almost everywhere. Dad and Aunt Ina would bring home big bags of them in the spring and we would feast on them. Morels are so rich and buttery. They truly are heavenly and there is nothing else like them.

FRIED MOREL MUSHROOMS
We had the best year of mushroom hunting this year in 2011 thanks in part to the great amounts of rain we had this past Spring in Southern Indiana. Here is one of my favorite recipes for Morel mushrooms. Best served when piping hot from the skillet along with some homemade Holly's Horsey Sauce or your own special sauces!

Steps:
- 1. Thoroughly wash and rinse the Morel mushrooms and soak in a cold water and salt bath for at least 1/2 hour prior to cooking (just enough water to cover).
- 2. Whisk egg and milk together in a medium sized bowl and add some salt and pepper, stir well.
- 3. Heat a skillet with around 1/2" of vegetable oil on medium high heat.
- 4. Place approximately 1 cup of flour in a medium sized bowl (depending on how many mushrooms you found, use more or less flour...if its less then I'm sorry about your luck). Lightly salt and pepper the flour and mix together.
- 5. Drain the soaking mushrooms well, then place a few at a time first in the egg mixture, then in the flour mixture and coat well.
- 6. The oil is ready when you drop a bit of mushroom in the pan and it sizzles to the top. Add your coated mushrooms to the pan and cook for around 2-3 minutes each side, until they are a light, crispy brown. Drain on a paper towel and serve with your favorite dipping sauces (see Holly's Horseradish Sauce and Kickin' Ketchup Horsey Sauce recipes below). Enjoy!
- 7. ****Holly's Horsey Sauce***** Add 1/4 cup of mayonnaise and 2 tsp of fresh horseradish to a small bowl and mix well. Recipe can be doubled or tripled, it makes a great dip for everything from roast beef to fried vegetables!
- 8. ****Holly's Kickin' Ketchup Horsey Sauce**** 1/2 Cup Ketchup, 1-2 tbs fresh horseradish (depending on how hot you like it), dash of Worcestershire sauce and a dash of salt & coarse ground pepper then mix well and enjoy!
