Morels

4 servings

Ingredients

• Morels (as needed)
• Water (a little)

Instructions

1. Trim the sandy stems from the morels and cut the mushrooms several times, ensuring no worms remain.
2. After thoroughly cleaning, treat the morels like porcini: clean them thoroughly, blanch them in boiling water, drain, fill into cans, cover with fresh cold water, and boil the well-sealed cans continuously for 1 hour.

Modernized from a treasured 19th-century German cookbook.
