Around here (Kentucky)they are called Dry Land Fish. Locals say soak em in salt and fry em in oil. Personally, we treat them just as you would any other mushrooms, saute lightly in a little butter, and add to what ever type of dish. The flavor is delicate.
Chris and the girls came back with only two day before yesterday. They went out after a rainy spell. Locals hunt them quite a bit along our road, some people find as much as a two gallon bucket full at a time. Chris is glad if he comes back with a half dozen of so.
