Did you know that morels that are tan all over are not ripe, and taste terrible when cooked and eaten? I didn't, neither did my son. But he wanted a morel, so I let him get one. He cooked it up, ate it, and it was terrible he said. So, a ripe morel must be dark brown on top to be ripe.
That's my guess. Any corrections?
Well, my experience has been that morels can be just about any shade brown even yellowish. Just depends on where you find them.
verpa bohemica;(early morel is light colored.)and toxic to some (metalic taste).morcella hybrida; dark brown to rust, very good taste. the mushroom hunters handbook, by alexander smithQuote:

Welcome 1wolf. Why not trot over to our Introduction section and tell us a bit about yourself?

I see you live in Indiana, God's country. Not sure why you have Montana listed up there, though.:innocent:
Anyone know when Morel season pretty much ends in Indiana?
Depends. Depends on temperature, humidity, rain, all the weather variables. Also location. Spring is about the best I can tell you. Probably end in Evansville quicker than Elkhart.

Yep, they're not ripe! You must send them to me right away for safe disposal! :innocent: (gets out his skillet, flour & butter!) Morels are "ripe" when they pop up! Leave them sit & somebody else grabs them! NOTE: Not everyone likes them!:sneaky2:Quote:

if it was firm and sound and still didn't taste right, it probably wasn't a morel. be careful.
After doing a little research, this one was probably a "yellow morel". It was light tan all over. I didn't know there were so many types of morels.
So some people like the taste and some don't? Are they a strong-tasting mushroom like portobellas? Portebellos?
the darker the more concentrated the flavor. the light ones like the mellow yellow are the better ones to get.Be careful of the false morells, many of those mimic the good ones in color and general appearence.Quote:
