Grilled Manouri Cheese with Caramelized Plums

Go to Recipe

Grilled Hen-of-the-Woods Mushrooms with Sesame

Grilled Hen-of-the-Woods Mushrooms with Sesame
Go to Recipe

"Hen-of-the-woods are often shredded and sautéed, but when you cook them whole, they become crispy outside and meaty and moist inside," says Jean-Georges Vongerichten of his preferred method of preparing the coral-like mushroom. "I'm a purist when it comes to beautiful ingredients, so serving the mushrooms in big clusters keeps them the way they grow in the woods."
