MAIN COURSE: Grilled Portobello Mushrooms Stuffed with Feta and Herbs
|
|
|
Portobello mushrooms are actually fully grown cremini mushrooms, and their large “steak-like” caps were embraced by chefs as a vegetarian grilling star in the 1980s. When grilled, they absorb flavors beautifully—making them the perfect base for a salty, creamy feta filling with fresh herbs.

NEW RECIPE
Lavender Syrup
Lavender syrup has long been made in Provence, France, where fields of fragrant lavender bloom every summer. This homemade version uses freshly harvested culinary lavender blossoms to create a delicate floral syrup that pairs beautifully with coffee, tea, lemonade, sparkling water, cocktails, and desserts. The flavor is subtle and elegant—never overpowering—when steeped for the proper amount of time.
