Foraging

With the recent rains I've been finding a lot of mushrooms lately... my new passion. The ones above are Hens of the Woods and puffballs. The bright orange ones below are Chicken of the Woods, otherwise known as Sulfur Shelves. I sauteed each in butter, froze some and made some quiches. They're so delicious on their own but I imagine they'd be tasty in a pasta or rice concoction. I did dry the majority of them because its easier to just rehydrate and toss them in soups - and we've run out of freezer space.
