My brother-in-law used to send us morelles every spring from the upper midwest......fresh morelles, lightly floured and fried in peanut oil with a horseradish-based dipping sauce...now that was my idea of something
But ya can't cultivate morelles though, can you...or can you...
"There is no royal road to this heavy surf-fishing. With all the appliances for comfort experience can suggest, there is a certain amount of hard work to be done and exposure to be bourne as a part of the price of success." From "Striped Bass," Scribner's Magazine, 1881.

Morels are my favorite mushroom. My parents grew up in the midwest also and told many stories of hunting trips with multiple shopping bags full!No, well mostly no as far as cultivation goes. There is one company that has a patened process to cultivate morels . There enviromental conditions that get them to fruit are very hard to reproduce indoors and they also have symbiotic relationships with plants/bacteria that cause them to fruit. ALso very hard to replicate. You can how ever grow morel spawn ( mushroom seed/roots) then put this outside in areas like old apple orchards or fairly recent burn sites. If your really lucky you might get some to grow the following year. I tried once under my parents apple trees with no luck.
bet you never saw this coming???
