Made Ken's sauce tonight at the Filly's request. Put it on some ugly steaks and it was fabulous. Was a little floored at the price of dried morels, $12 for 1/2 oz. This is an awesome dish but not very diet friendly. -RP

I'm gaining weight just looking at the pic...yum.

Yeah, I've been wanting to try it, but when I went to our gourmet grocery, they said morel's were like $million/ounce.

Here is one of his recipes a few years back. Perhaps less eggspensive mushrooms would also work.
Sauce, Beef, Steak, Ramp Cognac Cream Sauce
Well at the request of Woodoggies I have typed up the recipe for the sauce from my Woosday pic. It is also in the new recipie section under sauces rubs marinades. Hoss Ramp Cognac Cream Sauce This is a recipe for a ramp cognac cream sauce I made for peppercorn crusted ribeye. You can substitiute the ramps with, mushrooms (really good with morels!) to make a mushroom cognac cream sauce. Cayenne in small amounts (a pinch) gives a cream sauce more depth.
INGREDIENTS:
1/4 cup Chopped Ramps, Wild Leeks
1 Clove Garlic Minced
1 Clove Shallot Minced
1 pint Heavy Cream
1 Tbs Butter
1/2 cup Cognac or Brandy
1 Tsp Kosher Salt
1 Tsp White Pepper
1 tsp Cayenne
Preparation Directions:
1 Have everything chopped and near by when you start.
Cooking Directions:
1 Melt butter in a hot saute pan.
2 Saute the garlic,shallots and ramps till soft.
3 Deglaze with Cognac.(carefully this will ignite!)
4 Reduce the Cognac by half.
5 Add the heavy cream and reduce till desired thickness.
6 Season with salt, pepper, and cayenne.
7 Serve over steak or any other grilled or sauted meats.
Special Instructions:
1 If using mushrooms add the mushrooms first let them cook for a while then add your garlic and shallots or else they will burn.

They are a early spring/wild onion type of veggie.
Forgot to mention they have a broad flat leaf that sets it apart from the typical spring onion -
Randy,
See if you can get the dried ones from a European market. The are much cheaper that way. OK in a sauce, not so good in a recipe that calls for fresh.

Looks GREAT, Randy! I'll try that this spring when instead of paying $12 for 1/2 oz I'll use my FREE ones. OTOH to get them FREE I have to put up with this:

Morel's Grow wild here where I live. All I have to do is go out in the Spring of the year and hunt them in the woods. A few years back I was walking up a creek and looking along the bank when I found 84 in one spot. In this region when one goes out to look for Morel mushrooms they would say "dry land fish hunting".

I was raised in Milwaukee, Wis. and also in a town 120 miles west of there called Muscoda. Muscoda is self proclaimed to be the Morel mushroom capital of Wis.

I have never had Morels but have been promised some this coming season from my BIL who has family in Indiana. Evidently they are plentiful at times. -
Got this one from a bartender:
1 part Takillya
1 part Sweet & Sour Mix
1/2 " Triple Sec
1/2 " Rose's Lime Juice
Good Luck if you try it . . .

Great Job Randy! As a side note any other mushroom can be substituted for the morels. Morels are expensive yet I feel very worth it when you can get them. Yet Crimini mushrooms for an every day sauce works out great also. Hoss

I made this recipe for Valentine's dinner. I substituted baby portabellos. It was great. Here is the link to my post.
