Wild mushroom hunters are usually a friendly and generous lot. But not when it comes to disclosing a prize hunting ground. As a member of the band of amateurs called New York Mycological Society, for example, I’d go to the gallows before giving up the location of the place where, each year on the first Saturday in May, we kick off the foraging season by hunting for the rare and delectable morel. At Dean & DeLuca in TriBeCa, fresh morels are currently priced at a stiff $70 a pound.
