Morel Mushrooms: Chef James Kent & Foods In Season

If there ever was an ingredient that played hard to get, it is the morel. Yet this elusive mushroom, available only for a short time in spring, is highly desirable among chefs who value their deliciously forest-like, nutty taste and meaty texture with honeycomb patterns that soak up the flavors of sautés and sauces. Find out what makes this forage-to-table ingredient so special. Joining us are Chef James Kent, owner of Saga, Overstory and Crown Shy, and Johnny Anderson, founder of Foods in Season, a second-generation mushroom forager. <br /><br />Follow @chefjameskent @saga_nyc @CrownShynyc @overstory @foodsinseason @wherechefesshop @ingredientinsiders<br /><br />In partnership with The Chefs' Warehouse, a specialty food distributor that has been purveying high-quality artisan ingredients to chefs for over 30 years @wherechefsshop <a href="https://www.chefswarehouse.com/" rel="noopener">https://www.chefswarehouse.com/</a><br /><br />Produced by Haynow Media @haynowmedia <a href="https://haynowmedia.com/" rel="noopener">https://haynowmedia.com/</a>
