Directions

Cover dried morels with 1 cup hot water. Set aside.
Clean button mushrooms: wipe or brush away any stray bits, rinse if necessary. Remove and dice stems. Cut caps in thick slices.
Dice carrots, celery and onion.
Heat oil in heavy saucepan. Add carrots, onion, celery and mushroom stems. Cook 10 minutes over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally. Add stock and sliced mushroom caps.
