I enjoyed the most delicious burger of my entire life today for lunch.  I am not kidding!  We buy our beef from some neighbors and it is from grass-fed cattle, not even finished on grain...the best tasting beef I've ever had.  I cooked up the morels that we picked a couple days ago.  They had been soaking in salt water and we changed the water about 3 times.  After I drained and dried them well, I soaked them again in egg and goat milk for a few minutes while I mixed up some whole wheat flour, arrowroot flour, pink Himalyan salt, white pepper, and ground rosemary.  I rolled the morels in the flour mixture and fried them in a very hot cast iron skillet with about 1/2 stick of melted butter.  When the burgers, which had been lightly seasoned with sea salt and course black pepper, were done cooking on the grill, I slapped on a slice of provolone cheese, some slices of organic onion that had been lightly carmelized in the cast iron skillet, a drizzle of ranch syle dressing, and some of those delicious fried morels...all on a whole grain bun!  Oh my!  I was not expecting such a delicious meal, boy were we all excited.  It is not often that we eat like that for a Monday lunch at home!  I am still stuffed and it has been 4 hours!  Oh, yeah...the side dish was organic broccoli lightly steamed with butter.  Yum!  It was truly one of the finest lunches I have ever enjoyed...and I cooked it! 

I hope we can still pick another few pounds of mushrooms...the season is about done!

Sounds fantastic! We love our morels and enjoy hunting for them every spring. :-)
