What Are Morels?

Morels are a type of edible wild mushroom highly regarded for their distinctive flavour and appearance. They are known for their honeycomb-like cap with deep pits and ridges. Morels can vary in colour from light tan to dark brown and they typically grow in wooded areas, particularly near trees like ash, elm and oak. Fresh morel mushrooms are a delightful sign of the arrival of spring. Their notable spongy and springy form is far more aesthetically pleasing than other mushroom varieties and is much easier to notice when foraging. 

Morel Mushrooms Taste & Texture

Morels are often described as having a deep, earthy taste with nutty undertones and a hint of umami richness. The flavour of morels intensifies when cooked, becoming even more complex and aromatic. Many enthusiasts also note a slight peppery or smoky quality in the taste of morels, which adds to their culinary appeal. The texture of morel mushrooms is another distinguishing characteristic. When cooked properly, they have a firm yet tender texture, offering a satisfying bite that complements a wide range of dishes. 

Morel Mushroom Recipe Ideas

So, you're wondering about morels food? When cooked properly, they have a firm yet tender texture, offering a satisfying bite that complements a wide range of dishes. Whether sautéed, roasted, or added to soups and sauces, morels contribute a depth of flavour and a luxurious mouthfeel that elevates any meal.

When is Morel Mushroom in Season?

Morels have a relatively short growing season in the spring, typically appearing from February to June in the Northern Hemisphere, although their exact availability can vary depending on local climate conditions. Due to their popularity and limited availability, fresh morels can be quite expensive, but they are also available dried, which can be a more affordable option and offers the convenience of year-round availability.

Dried & Frozen Morels

Morel mushrooms aren’t just for springtime, they can be enjoyed throughout the year. Drying is the traditional way to preserve morel mushrooms particularly when dried whole, ready to use in your soups and sauces. Sweet girolles perfectly complement the earthy, subtle flavour of dried morel mushrooms and are perfect for a mushroom risotto. As an alternative to drying, we also offer flash-frozen morels, ensuring that these flavour-packed seasonal gems can be enjoyed all year round.
