I bet ov walked 50 miles this spring for a hand full of morels this year. It's not been a good year in my usual haunts. I did come home with a huge sack of chicken of the woods yesterday. They are yummy eating as well!
I took the excess morels and cut the larger ones in half.
I then placed them on a cookie sheet and froze then for a couple of hours, keeping them separated so they would not freeze together.
I am hoping they will be like fresh when thawed.
If not they will be good to use in gravy, ect.
Most people I know that are good shrummers dry them.
Even though I was in a mushroom club and consider it a hobby I never saw or picked a Morel.
They do pretty good dried. A little tougher than fresh when reconstituted but still very good.

Paper targets aren't your friends. They won't lie for you and they don't care if your feelings get hurt.
We have 2 kinds of morels here. The regular yellowy brown ones that seem to be most common in riparian areas where there are cottonwood and juniper trees in the vicinity. The other ones are the black ones called fire morels. They bloom the spring the first year after a forest fire in the ashes of the burnt duff. It is the mother lode of mushroom hunting when this happens. Dedicated people who don't mind long days and getting sooty can fill garbage cans. The long days can be mostly looking for a place that hasn't been already picked. Once you find that place, Whoo-hoo!
The local morel bloom in burnt over areas the first spring after a fire.
saltwater bath, egg, flour, fry here!!
I froze and then vacuum sealed them in hopes they would like fresh.
WRONG. I`m not sure if was the freezing and or vacuum sealing but they thawed out mushy.
I will thaw them all out and dry them.
Dip in beaten eggs and fry with butter. No milk or flour needed. Maybe a pinch of salt.
