HUNT FOR ELUSIVE MOREL MUSHROOMS | Morel Pasta Recipe

[@broomstickcowgirl]

Those magic words, "We're going to Alaska for the next three months". I'm soooooo excited to see that. Safe travels.

[@li.li.]

My dad used to drag us out to hunt for these. He always said 'the first one is always the hardest' and it was true. 💚

[@mickfenton2221]

Soak your morels in salt water after picking it kills any insects in the mushrooms. Save any water you rinse your morels in after especially after cutting them up. This water contains a lot of spores and should be spread in your backyard for harvesting next season.

[@wideeyedraven15]

What? Morels can’t be cultivated…I think they are just starting this process commercially. I don’t think I’ve ever heard of anyone cultivating morels.

[@guitjolin]

Don't soak mushrooms unless they are drying out. Cold running water and a stiff bristled paintbrush are the only way to go. An air compressor with a blower is really helpful too.

[@emelystubbs5125]

Jocelyn, those chives are BEAUTIFUL

[@dustysaurus6137]

Normally not a mushroom fan, but morels have always fascinated me, even as a kid. Something about them look so tasty, and the way people go bonkers over them. Definitely need to give ‘em a shot when the opportunity presents itself.

[@victorlui5955]

Cool video Taku & Jocelyn!!! Taku was so happy when he found the first morel. Foraging for mushrooms is fun, I would like to forage for magic mushrooms. Lol. 🍄🍄🍄

[@dwaynewladyka577]

Thanks for the re editing of the video. It's awesome to see you forage for wild edibles, like mushrooms, and creating dishes with them. My dad, and his brothers were really good at foraging for wild mushrooms on his farm, in Alberta. I also had another uncle who was good at foraging for wild mushrooms. They were nice and tasty when they were cooked up. One of my (late) aunts also made pierogies, filled with beef and mushrooms. Those were good. I like dumplings of different types, including pot stickers. Can you make pot stickers, using wild mushrooms, and wild greens, that you foraged for in the woods? Cheers, Taku and Jocelyn! #TakuTuesday ✌️

[@gd8374]

Taku Tuesday! Man I love it your passion is endless! Don’t ever stop being your Taku

[@idiotsvant]

Props on including the false morel comparison, great direct example for people who might not be that familiar

[@wyldwilms]

😋Another mouth watering video! Thank you Taku and Jocelyn. You two are awesome!💗💗💗

[@Scratpac47]

I love morels. we go hunting for them in the Columbia river gorge and in the southern Oregon mountains. I recently bought a handmade pair of clay morel earrings at the southern Oregon makers festival.

[@samantharupert5656]

This takes me back to the first time I found a morel. Good for y’all, they are soooooo good!

[@griffithracingteam2412]

bro to find that many your first time out is amazing. been looking for the last ten years and you have found more in one day than I have total. I'm on the east coast too may be the difference

[@debivort]

Another difference between morels and false morels is in the latter, the cap folds over and overhangs the stem. I.e. there's a gap between the bottom edge of the cap and the stem. In true morels, the pits of the cap are attached to the stem all the way down. Also, false morels have folds, true morels have pits.

[@gumballrun9881]

semi-free morels- a true and choice edible morchella sp. are not attached to the stem. See Morchella semilebera. We get a ton of them in the midwest.

[@liarliar1408]

Yo, where's the beef? Lol The rain coming down though. Something about the rain, so romantic.

[@thelinecook]

A little rain can’t stop taku from a catch and cook! Or should I say forage and cook. Haha. Still the result was absolutely amazing. Fresh pasta and morels… I don’t think it gets any better then that. That dish looked absolutely amazing and it was packed full of morels!! I couldn’t even imagine how much that would cost in a restaurant!

[@manicallycapable]

U can use the morel water for lots of stuff , goes great as a soup base cooking pasta is a good idea and my brother likes making stir-fry with dehydrated morels anf uses the water to cook his rice

[@GoldenAK42089]

you know what would be an interesting twist... Jocelyn picks what to eat and also joins in on the cooking!

[@duanem9765]

I need to stop watching these while I'm hungry my mouth is drooling

[@rb5043]

Always enjoyed your contents! My kind of life. Live vicariously through you both. Keep the love and living life to the fullest 🥳

[@johnharder5618]

Nice video I hunt for Morels here in Ohio Mark where you find them this year and look there and down wind next year Also around where I live The location of where you find Morels is NEVER told to anyone else As many people consider the Morel worth more that Gold

[@josephj.m.s4302]

False morels are collected and eaten during spring time here in finland, they are considered a delicacy and are also sold fresh during the spring time, of course the sellers are mandated to put up a sign not to touch the mushrooms since they are toxic when fresh

[@Fuhrious]

Here in WV, we gather morels by the bucketful with little to no effort. Delicious

[@beachblond1968]

Please tell me where because I never can find any!

[@ilocosnorte1785]

Wow I sure like your style of cooking. You go out find the ingredients, create something so delicious & lastly cook while rain pouring down. That's just great you 2. Take care enjoy the outdoor. Keep safe.

[@jedim1ndfux619]

Morel mushrooms are delicious. I find them fairly often while hiking the woods in Minnesota (my home state) but have even found them in the tropical jungles of Hawaii! An amazing plant.

[@thefishfamilyadventureshom693]

Very cool to see you so excited over your first Morel!! I have yet to find any but did find some false ones for the first time this year. Glad to see you showing the difference

[@clrd4tkoff]

Omg!! I'm so glad you're back!! What an awesome video!! Great Cooking video as you have always done before!! 🤗🤗

[@mitchellhart2700]

I’ve had chive flowers as a garnish! Y’all ate the whole flower!!

[@SB-xu8pi]

YES YES YES, back to Alaska!!! I can't wait to see the videos!!

[@terryblueberry]

that pasta looks AMAZINGGG

[@Red_Beef_Sox]

While you are up in Alaska you should look up Minndak Outdoors. They are in Alaska for the summer too. It would be cool to see some collaboration videos.

[@robertjackson7745]

Loved your presentation. Thank you. Cooking morels today in Eugene, Oregon. Purchased at our local farmer's market.

[@raymondgilbert7887]

My only experience mushroom hunting was looking for morels. Definitely worth the trek.

[@donEvans27]

Fresh edit with a 🍺! Nice. Have a great adventure in Alaska, I will definitely watch

[@toddramsay977]

Morels don’t like snow. They come up after the snow melt soaks the soil and as the May Apples start to bloom. At least that is my experience in Kansas and Kentucky, usually the April time frame. Where you find May Apples you will find morel’s.

[@TattooedGranny]

I am a morel hunter….your video made me so hungry!

[@dennistani1986]

Looking forward to more from Alaska this summer! Have you ever thought of heading to the far northen part of the state towards the Arctic ocean? Many places to explore.

[@anuvhabvlog9782]

The quality and production of your video gets higher and higher. Keep them coming love your video 👍👍👍

[@robotman99lolface]

We find these along the Mississippi here in MN especiallu after rain. They are so delish

[@aaronaguileras8954]

It's Still Taku Tuesday somewhere lol!!!

[@racepaquette6956]

I live about 30 miles West of Nashville Tennessee. We have a pretty good amount of Morels here. If you didn't know, Indians called them dry land fish. Give them a smell and you'll see. Behind my parents house we have found 13 edible species of mushrooms including lions mane or bearded hedgehog, sulfur shelf, chanterelles, and wood ears. You should come to Tennessee!

[@domkarleone5800]

I’m so stoked to hear you guys are coming to Alaska!! I hope to run into y’all out here.

[@tblazy3463]

Glad you found some I have been out 4 times and haven't found any morels. A few oysters that were great though! 😁🍄

[@brandonskidmore2741]

Just call it back I'm trying to leave a bunch of comments because it helps you it makes your video spread a lot more when you do a lot more comments and I'm trying to watch every commercial

[@kceeG]

Literally perfect timing ❄️

[@willisgemutlich2608]

sorry I gotta do it. you're a fun-guy. my godfather was a mapmaker and some other stuff and died from a heart attack in his truck 4 days before taking me out mushroom hunting for my "1st time" when he was scouting for chanterelles. fortunately, randomly, my biology teacher maybe 10 years later turned out to be one of his best friends, and we've linked up sometimes to do some mushroom seeking. he's also the one that taught us my first sushi roll. it was veggie, but whatevs, right? when you have the chance, the time, give us more info on how to properly treat fish to avoid any problems. 7 hours right? It's so funny that everyone talks about how fresh things are, and in reality you should freeze it overnight to make it safe. I'm so excited for you 2 getting the van built so now you can go ANYWHERE. oh and good job linking up with rei they're boss.

[@willisgemutlich2608]

Maybe so, that's up to your own decisions. The ones I'm into are oysters because they are mild.

[@maltrek1]

glad to see you found the king of the mushrooms. please send jocelyn y way if she things theyre easy to spot. i can always use an extra pair of eyes

[@johnmat7099]

Good job buddy next time you want to hunt Morrell and your in Oregon hit me up I've been doing it professionally for over 20 years looking forward to seeing your Alaska adventures! Shout out from southern oregon!

[@johnharder5618]

I will NEVER throw away the water used to rehydrate Morels , save it to make rice I find 3 types of Morels Gray , Brown and Yellow The Yellow Morels are the largest and last to emerge A good way to enjoy Yellow Morels is to stuff them and then grill them I use a nice sausage , rice and hard cheese Pre cook the sausage and rice , grate the cheese Stuff the morels and grill till the cheese is starting to soften Serve on a bed of garden greens with a nice glass of wine

[@amsb4dafunk558]

Morels was one of my favorite drivers to build with It Was great when Parts-Express sold select matching tweeter pairs.

[@gregorykelley5555]

Solo stoves are awesome! I bought one for me and one for my bffs. I haven't tried cooking on it yet.

[@tobinbh3940]

Alaska adventure sounds amazing..cant wait!!!

[@AlejoStorni]

You hit a jackpot brother, good job!

[@JColeJ97]

I love morel hunting. I've tried all kinds of ways to cook them. The best for me is battered and fried in oil until they're crispy.

[@yanjijay6752]

Food looks great I've always wanted to hunt for morrels but don't know nothing about them still learning

[@flamemonkey5]

Love the vids! Thanks for the content!

[@scienzchic1]

WOW that was like 1/2 cup butter! yummy!

[@nateo3062]

I don’t know if you guys eat fried food but if you do soak them in water get the bugs out pat dry cut in halves Season with your favorite seasoning tumble in flower add so butter to your pan Fry them on both sides for a little bit enjoy “say say bone”

[@matthewwilcox8531]

They are amazing mushrooms i wish you found some huge ones and were able to store them more than you had i look forward to spring time every year

[@lilSweeps]

damn i love morrels, i remember going hiking with my family as a kid and finding a bunch of them on the trail and just eating them straight out of the ground

[@gabrideen]

Love Jocelyn’s hair👩‍🎤

[@dannyaldama5228]

Thanks for the video yo. Now I know how morals mushrooms look like. The pasta too looks easy to make. I enjoy cooking too.

[@ServiceAceStud]

You should consider giving your elevations and temperatures as they both change water content needed and cook times. Or mention any conversions needed.

[@dlee6014]

Great vid Bruh...love the recipe 👊🏾💯❤️

[@vladfreeman2818]

I found 12 this year. They grow in disturbed areas as well as burn areas.

[@RuskiVodkaaaa]

bro that looks amazing, you're trully an artist with your food

[@PerlaVillar]

Oh,another king of mushroom,enjoy picking lodz

[@voiddragon3439]

That jump shot was fire 🔥

[@oversoulzero1]

Nice! Can’t wait to see the Alaska vids. Have you guys ever tried Saskatoon berries? They taste like a mix between blue berries and guava. There’s a spot just outside Anchorage that I hike at that has them.

[@brandonskidmore2741]

Just can't wait to see what you cook up because you are one hell of a chef I'm trying to talk to some sponsors to get you onto a TV show cooking KZbin style and you have a battle against somebody else

[@pkr45ownz45]

I love morels seasoned and fried in butter!!🤤🤤🤤

[@ChandlerNoll]

Reaaallly looking forward to this upcoming alaska content brotha!🤙

[@badmotherfarker123]

Holy shit seeing Taku doing manual noods is MIND BLOWN!!!!

[@geri9839]

Morel mushroom fettuccini look delicious!!

[@toddramsay977]

I collect as many as I can. You aren’t saving them for no one. They are there for a day or so and that’s it. So I pick them, process them and freeze or dry them for future use thru out the year. Last year I think I got 5 lbs. I love to make a mushroom sauce and pound some pork or veal for Jaeger Schnitzel. I am interested in harvesting other types but scared I will get the wrong ones. Would love to find those Lobster mushrooms and others you find but feel safe those are the ones.

[@andreamassey3398]

I've watched this video a couple times because I love hunting Morels and fishing. Tell Jocelyn her hair is gorgeous and I'm sorry for butchering her name. I enjoy watching your videos.

[@corbgroov7711]

Man I wish I could spend 3 days in Alaska lol. Safe ventures brother!

[@nicktrinh192]

Good luck in Alaska! Stay safe up there

[@marielynn3802]
