They are a gift to us from Lord God and Lord Jesus our master and Lord that created everything, mostly. We are the Gentiles or Israelites to be save from Satan and his demons, fallen angels and hell that resembles the sun and have a wonderful relationship with our Lord Jesus and Lord God, we must repent of sins found in Exodus by Lord Jesus to Moses and Israel and everybody. We are to get baptized full body in water and humbly ask Lord God to receive his Holy Spirit and spiritual fire. And Lord Jesus fulfilled the scriptures in the New Testament so instead of not murder we are love each other in Lord God even our enemies in Lord Jesus name and love Lord God with all our hearts, minds and souls. And so much more in our king James Bible that Lord God provided for us so kindly through his chosen people.

calorie negative, yes, but have you seen the insane price per ounce people get for dried morels online? you guys should consider drying, packaging and selling them next spring!

My absolute favorite! I used to forage with my dad as a kid but I cannot find them as an adult! His recipe was sautéed in butter, shallots and then reduce in dry sherry and heavy cream. It’s the best thing ever!!

This channel should have views in millions , but alas people like to watch garbage online than these hardworking people living a sustainable life

[@rushley5813]

We used to pick them when i was a kid morells bell peppers and pepperoni pizza is a heavenly experience

Just found some in my yard thank you for helping me identify! ❤ I have them at home in fridge ready to eat

[@sujaymyr]

I am just a bit concerned. I just saw a video that morel mushroooms need to be cooked thoroughly well, or they can be poisonous. Please take care, just thought of sharing what I got to know.

Bruh, I feel like I’m watching a PBS show, and I love every minute of it! This feels nostalgic. Keep it up 👏👏👏

[@iloveschicken6527]

Thank you for this video! I just found 4 huge ones in my yard! Excited! God bless all!

[@L_The_Human]

Amazing video! Loved morel mushrooms for awhile and appreciate the information 😊❤

[@HomegrownHandgathered]

Glad you enjoyed it! 😊

Great video! I have never picked wild mushrooms but you make the whole concept more approachable :)

❤❤ I'm watching to see how much you understand about these wonderful bites.

Dry land fish! I haven't had one in years since living in Florida. I'm from the western tip of Virginia, and we fix them the way we do fresh water fish. Cut them in half from top to bottom, soak them about an hour in cold water to get the bugs out. Drain and roll them in cornbread mix or 50/50 cornmeal/flour mix. The water will make the breading stick. Fry until golden. We also forage and fry poke shoots at the same time. If you pick poke when the leaves are still curved inward, (about 2 -4 inch tall) you can wash and treat them the same as the morels. They will still make tiny blisters in your mouth if you too many but as a kid, I considered it a fair trade off for getting to eat as many poke shoots as I wanted. LOL

Just found my first one today. They are delicious!

What conditions? Where you at. Congratulations 👏 and welcome to the club. You know the first rule of the club already

I've seen some in my yard that are a darker brown

Last year I found morels under my grandparents RV. There were tons of them, and since they were in an area we could easily check again we let them grow to max size, which was massive. It’s a permanent site at a campsite. Behind our rv is a small space in between our RV and the back the the neighbor’s. Near the front of our RV is a rather massive maple tree in between the sites, which means that little space is the perfect place for a small group of morels to grow, and it’s the only place in the campground with those conditions. We got nearly a dozen morels from that harvest (unfortunately some of them got knocked over before they reached full size). A week after we found them we picked up all the surviving morels and we took them home, and my aunt cooked them in a sauce (I did not want to eat them because of the sauce), but everyone said they were good. Unfortunately they did not grow back this year, but hopefully they grow back eventually. Also, they were (probably) not common morels, but they did look exactly like the mushroom shown at 1:40. Nobody got sick after we ate them, so let’s call that a win.

Craziest thing is that where I current live they farm morels. It's super interesting since farmed morels have slightly different patterns compared to wild morels. Farmed morels have more straight line patterns on their bulbs compared to wild.

[@Jacobjub8]

Just found a giant morel at the end of the season, nice video, personally I'm lazy so I just say the bugs are bonus protein 😅

[@completedharma]

Thank you for this indepth explanation and appreciation for edible mushrooms, especially morels. Mahalo nui loa.

[@DinoFuzz1988]

Glad this video pop up only recommended. Your guys's videos are always such a joy to watch!

[@putra.m.tampubolon]

Very informative and I really love the sustainibility of your way of living, you've got yourself a new subscriber 😊 much love from Indonesia ❤

[@frankgarofalo7722]

You guys are the absolute best! I love your garden and foraging videos. I also enjoy how you guys also include meat in your diet instead of forcing a vegan diet like most gardening or fruit-only diet channels do. Keep it up!

[@scarstrng2813]

amazing guys i love your youtube

[@HomegrownHandgathered]

Thank you! Glad you're enjoying it

[@MasterpieceLost]

Thanks for sharing! I’ve heard from forager friends that there is a lot of concern about over-foraging an area. I’d love to hear your thoughts and advice about how to balance foraging and sustainable practices

[@dougluba8390]

Very comprehensive, yet concise! Love it, guys 👍. I didn’t find any yet this year in southeast PA, but I did find ramps, so I hope to make a similar recipe if I come across morels soon. P.S. it looks like your morels were growing amidst a bunch of mayapple plants. Any plans on coming back to that spot to gather those fruits when they’re ripe?

[@HomegrownHandgathered]

We usually only find a few mayapples every year. I think the raccoons and box turtles get to them before us!

[@dougluba8390]

@@HomegrownHandgathered that figures lol, they know the woods better than any of us.

[@corybuckles8492]

I saw some other videos saying Mayapples are a good indicator of places to look for morels, so they stood out to me as well. Seems like at least some decent anecdotal evidence to back up that claim. :)

[@mr-sj6kd]

What about false morels? How edible are they? Ive came across them but never risked it.
