Ingredients

If using dried morels, soak them in hot water at least 30 minutes; add a splash of sherry if you have it. Rinse fresh or rehydrated morels to remove any grit, then pat them dry.

Instructions

Soak dried morels in hot water to cover for at least 30 minutes. Gently rinse fresh or dried morels to remove grit. Leave small morels whole, but halve or quarter large ones. Pat them dry with paper towels. (This can be done up to a day ahead; cover and chill.)

Melt butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms; sauté 2 minutes. Add peas; sauté until peas turn bright green and begin to soften, about 3 minutes. Stir in jicama and scallions; cook 1 minute. Season sauté with salt and pepper.

Stringing sugar snap peas makes them less chewy. Just snap the tip with your fingers and give the tab a pull like a zipper.

Rehydrate dried morels with very hot water. Adding a little sherry will enhance the nutty flavor of the mushrooms.
