In the frying pan with the ham and just a little butter and olive oil. Doesn't need to be extra virgin or anything like that. When they are cooked I pull them out and put them into a dish. Then I pour in the three eggs that I have whisked up, and let that cook a little bit to sort of "set" the outside of the omelette. When I figure that has been accomplished, I reintroduce the Chants and ham to what will be the interior of the omelette. Then, I will use a long spatula to start peeling up an edge of that omelette until I can get enough of the spatula under there to flip the omelette into its presentation shape. This may not be "classic" technique, but nobody ever taught me how to make an omelette. I just knew that I liked them, and wanted to be able to make them. So, I tried to figure it out myself. And my method works quite well.
Thanks for that tip. The thing is, once I found out what I did about Chants and changed my way of thinking, I kind of got spoiled! I could go out there and harvest, and be picky! If I cut a Chant and there was just one "bug tunnel" up the stem, I'd keep it. Two or more, no way! It was thrown on the ground! The spot I hunted flushed so regularly, especially with regular rains, that there were always new shrooms to find! That's a nice situation. OK. It might last 2 months! But, I kind of like the seasonality of things.
In the Fall and Winter kill a deer and eat venison. This might be augmented with rabbit, pheasant, squirrel, and other natural foods. Come Spring, get after Turkey and morels. Also crappie and walleye for your proteins! Summers? I guess that you might need to depend upon vegetation, since that it was is prevalent. That's why I grow a veggie garden every year. It's also why you should get thin in the summertime and get a little bit fat in the winter!
