You got it bad, boy..... You know you're a die-hard when morels become more important than turkeys.
Two tips on drying. First make sure you have your morels dired very well; mold and critters will get them if you don't. In some areas insect larva love to live in the morchellas. After i have mine dried I throw in a couple of dried bay leaves which supposidly kills any insects that may be there.
Morels dry probably the easiest of the ild mushrooms, taking the shortest amount of time and coming out well. Right now we are drying Spring Boletes (edulis rex) which take a little longer.
