Win 2lbs of morel mushrooms - $113.50 value

Morel Mushrooms

Got a magnificent mushroom recipe? You could win two pounds of morel mushrooms from Marx Foods!

According to the contest description, Marx Foods is open to "the most simple ideas to complicated epicurean creations." However, they do point out that "sometimes with fresh seasonal items, they should be the star of a dish and not overshadowed with other flavors." My guess is that they will pick something simple that really features the mushrooms, but they could surprise me.

The recipes will be judged on deliciousness (you better hope that the judge has the same taste buds as you) and originality.

The contest deadline is Thursday, May 15th. As the time of this writing, 35 people have entered.

Get all the contest details and submit your entry at Marx Foods.

A nice benefit of the terrible fire season that have to endure (I call summer the brown and smoky season). The year before? Lower fire activity resulted in almost no morel during the "season". And, they don't cost $60/lb. More like $10 in season. Nothing better when sauteed whole in a little olive oil, finished with some butter-salt-pepper... either as an addition to a meat entry or just alone.
