***FRESH Morel Mushrooms

Our wild fresh morel mushrooms are foraged here in the great Northwest by our intrepid pickers. Our diligent foragers set our each spring to find these tiny and rare morsels up mountain sides in the Cascade Mountains. The fresh morel mushroom season is very short typically lasting only a few weeks in April or May. Many pickers have their own secret patches that have been passed down from generation to generation and are closely guarded secrets. Our delicious morel mushrooms are handpicked daily and shipped overnight to guarantee maximum freshness. Wild morels have a wonderful earthy flavor making them one of the most sought after mushrooms of all. Top chefs around the world love to put fresh morel mushrooms on their menu each spring. We have blonde morels, grey morels, natural morels and conica morels all available depending on the time of the season. Please note morels loose weight quickly. We ship our morels at the specific weight ordered but they may have slight shrinkage over shipping. All our morels are top grade and we guarantee them to arrive fresh in good condition. We do recommend rinsing the fresh morel mushrooms in warm water or salt water before using them. Our favorite way to cook them is simply sauteing them with fresh garlic, white wine and soy sauce.
