Well, yeah ........................

 

     I never loved the taste of morels, but I would eat them for tradition's sake and because I liked the idea of physically absorbing both the essence of the woods and the associated mystery of mushrooms themselves.

     We would soak them in salt water, slice them in half, dredge them in flour, and fry them in butter.  We are Ohioans.  If we could pluck starlight from the sky, we would dredge it in flour and fry it in butter.
