If you boil them, throw out the water, boil em again, then fry them I "think" you can eat them at that point.

lol!! Sounds like a wild turkey recipe.

Here's the thing about Gyromitra. You can eat them many times and not have any ill effects and then just once more, and wham. Very strange mushroom. I've known chefs who buy them but it's not smart.

Found this guy last week in Idaho.   Any idea what it is….looked like a bear was digging them and eating them.

  Looks to me like a destroying angel. Cook it up if you're tired of this life. Otherwise, wash your hands. This time of year, there are only a couple of edibles - morels and porcini/king boletes. Beware of anything else until the lobsters pop in July.
