    Saturday's morel forage was bright, brisk and bountiful. About 3
    pounds. I'm thinking of a simple scrambled egg/morel/sausage feast
    tonight.

    Lots of different mushrooms out. Only two poisonous species seen:
    Hebeloma crustuliniforme and Gyromitra californica. The latter was
    probably more problematic as there were occasional small Gyromitra
    gigas (Snowbank morel) out as well - which I have eaten before and will
    probably eat again.

    Also thinking about what to take to Quatro de Mayo celebration at work.
    Maybe a salsa with morels? Any ideas out there?

    I am sooo jealous of people who know where to harvest fresh morels.

    The wife and I snagged 8.5 pounds of them in about 90 minutes this
    afternoon! It was her first time and now she is hooked.

    No, we won't tell you where our secret patch is! 🙂

    I saw fresh morels the other day at my local supermarket, Wegmans.

    They were $50 a pound. Fresh black truffles were $300 a pound..

    If I were getting $50/pound for morels, I'd take a week off from work
    to harvest a hundred pounds or so. I know at least one area producing
    well right now. But I'd only get about $20/pound _if_ I was selling
    them, and that would not even pay for the gas to get to them.

    I'm trying to think what variety "fresh black truffles" might be. The
    season for T. melanosporum should have ended in late Feb. or March. To
    have them in May would be extraordinately late. OTOH, maybe they are
    early T. aestivum (Summer truffles). Summer truffles are _quite_ good
    to my taste, and I think they are generally under-priced. Especially
    when compared to the vastly over-priced T. magnatum.
