Upstate NY

We got the ice but no snow..still depressing as hell. I read that this is the worst start of spring in the past 40 yrs...nuff already.

 

Hey people! Hope all is well. Weather sucks but I have been harvesting leeks and boy are they tasty. Good luck this year! Enjoy the hunt!

 

Same to you Geo..here's hoping for a great year!

 

Big,

Sooo...how did they turn out? I just freeze dried mine by dredging in flour, then gave away to relatics, oops relatives. NO complaints. Waiting for your next recipe to hit the airwaves. I enjoyed last years.

 

Dandelions are starting to pop in my backyard (Jefferson County). This next week should provide some good warmth that we so desperately need! Hopefully the early blacks will be coming soon.

 

They turned out great I don't see myself drying them at all anymore. I thought the texture was way better than dried and rehydrated. They were just as good as fresh IMO.

 

Anybody out hunting yet?

 

I think I found a dryad saddle was wondering if they are a good eating mushroom?

 

There a ok mushroom if you haven't tried one Definitely try it. That my opinion.

 

I have heard on hear that they taste like watermelon rind?

 

Smell like watermelon rind/cucumber, taste like what you doctor them up with. Stem is very tough, some knives have hard time cutting. Not to mention your teeth.

 

Thanks, they do have a watermelon rind smell going to try it tomorrow.

 

Found 3 morels in my yard this morning
