Preparing for cooking
Cleaning morel mushrooms can help in the prevention of eating slugs, bugs and dirt. When I was a child, I was taught to soak morels in salted water for 15 minutes. This kills any slugs, and draws out bugs from the nooks and crannies. I’ve heard of other people skipping the salt and rinsing the mushrooms under gently running water and patting them dry. I know one person who just brushes off the dirt and bugs with a dish towel.
