Morel mushrooms grow in India? Yes, indeedy. They are called Gucchi in the Northern regions.

An evocative article with a great recipe.

Vanika Chaudhury makes a Gucchi Pulao
The recipe, passed down through at least three generations, is a vessel of cultural preservation, much like the jars of pickles that line the window sills of her home.

"Gucchi, the elusive morel mushroom, is the star of this dish. It is foraged in the high-altitude regions of Jammu and Kashmir, appearing only when spring’s first thunderstorms awaken them from the earth.

The Gujjar women, indigenous nomadic foragers, are the first to find these treasures, venturing into the forests after a night of thunder and rain. They carefully gather them, their knowledge of the land and its bounty passed down through generations. The fresh gucchi mushrooms must be eaten within two days, but drying them ensures their preservation for the year ahead."

I’m going through our events page on the Small Technology Foundation web site¹ and porting the entries there to the new version of our web site that I’m building in Kitten² and it’s depressing how many event sites have just disappeared.
