Shawnee man finds large Morel mushroom - Shawnee, OK - The Shawnee News-Star

SHAWNEE, Okla. —

A Shawnee man whose hobby is hunting for Morel mushrooms had a rare find this week when he stumbled across a large, one-foot-long version.
Bud Mullens said he’s been hunting Morels for quite some time, but he’s never harvested one of this size.
“It was like sawing a tree with a little knife,” he said.

When living in western Iowa we would find large Morel that fit in a bread pan not quite 12 inches but close to that. When finding these giants and cooking them up we found them to be tough and tasteless maybe good in a soup puree`d. The little one's are better I think. Still a good find.
