The following recpie made with rehydrated dried morels was so good i
cant wait to try it out with fresh. Any suggestions for seasoning the
mushroom/meat mix would be appreciated. Given some other mushroom
recipes im thinking nutmeg, finely chopped shallots, maybe a bit of
grated cheese.

Morilles Farcies a la Forestiere
------------------------------------

Select some large morels, wash them well and remove the stalks.

Chop the stalks and make into a duxelles [ i used a thick white wine &
garlic mushroom sauce] then add half its quantity of very fine sausage
meat [i used ground chicken though im thinking of adding ground shrimp
to the chicken]

Cut the morels through on one side to form a pocket and fill with the
prepared stuffing.

Place in a buttered bakeing dish cut side down, sprinklw with very fine
dry white breadcrumbs and melted butter and cook in a moderate [325 F
for 1/2 hour] oven. Serve in the dish as they are.

Come spring, or whenever the fresh morels come on the market around here
im likely to try a number of variations on the recipe, thyme is
definitely on the list. I have become so enamoured of 'oyster'
mushrooms i am thinking of a small dice of them in the stuffing mix.
