Needless to say, I was a bit leery of trying them but they assured me they'd been eating them for years. Of course, being a lover of all types of food, I couldn't resist. Let me just say that wild morels, sliced length-wise, soaked overnight in saltwater, then battered and fried are one of the tastiest foods I've ever eaten. I would certainly advise caution to those not familiar with mushrooms as some are very deadly. Ambiorix seems to know what he's doing, however.
