Here is a recent post about my first moral experience. There are also several pictures for those who are curious:

Since then, we found another big patch. Got at least 15 more. This time we tried frying them. And that was the best way we've eaten them so far. First I cut them into rings then rinsed them off in cold water. Dry them well on a paper towel. My wife prepares a batter if flour with salt and Thyme. She first dips them into the flour, then into some egg (farm fresh, of course) then back into the flour again. Then fry till golden brown in vegetable oil. They were just fantastic! Getting the amount of salt right is key. I also sprinkled some freshly grated parmegian cheese on some of them right out of the oil. Good stuff.
It is really nice to find something so good right there on your property that you did nothing to cultivate. Like a little gift from God.
