Honeycombed spring treasure that drinks cream like it was born to. A variety-specific method — because each mushroom is its own ingredient, not a garnish category.

Method
1
Halve and rinse WELL (the honeycomb hides grit); dry. Sauté in butter 4 minutes; add a minced shallot for 2.

Why this works
Morels are never eaten raw — always fully cooked.
2
A splash of white wine, reduced; then cream, simmered 3 minutes to coat. Spoon over toast, chicken, or spring asparagus.

Chef's notes
Mushroom law applies to every variety: dry them well, give them space, and salt at the end — salt early and they sweat instead of sear.
Afterwards
Keep, reheat & pair
Storage
Refrigerate up to 3 days.
Freezing
Depends on the vegetable — roasted things reheat better than they freeze.
Reheating
Roasted vegetables re-crisp in a 200°C oven for 6–8 minutes; mashes loosen with a splash of warm milk over low heat.
Make ahead
Blanch or par-roast ahead, then finish with high heat just before serving.
