Trying to honor the intention of a hugely gracious gift of incredible morels from Tundra Monkey.
I had some left over Beef Pot Roast in the freezer. So I decided to make a hearty soup now that the weather has cooled.
Threw a 1/2 cup of dried morels on some cheesecloth and gave them a hour of smoke with some Oak Dust.
Then after browning my mirepoix I crumbled the morels in with a scoop of smoked duck fat-set the heat to high then deglazed the pot with some home made Nebbiolo wine.
Diced in the pot roast and gravy-garlic and fresh rosemary and some diced tomato-let simmer an hour then added 1/2 cup pearl barley
Thanks again
