Morel mushrooms have captivated foragers and gourmet cooks alike. They grow in many parts of the world, in meadows and forests. The challenge and thrill of finding them in the wild is even more satisfying when they are prepared into a delicious dish.

Morchella esculenta and other species of morels, known as “guchi” in Chinese Medicine, are widely used as a therapeutic food since they are highly nutritious and have medicinal benefits.

Researchers have demonstrated the immune-supportive properties of these mushrooms which inhibited the proliferation and growth of human colon cancer cells. They have also been studied for their anti-inflammatory and blood sugar-stabilizing benefits.

In this webinar you will learn:

  • How and where to find morels
  • Sustainably methods of harvesting
  • How to dry and preserve morels
  • Delicious gourmet dishes with morels
  • Their wonderful health benefits
