Charred Leeks With Honey and Vinegar

Ingredients for Charred Leeks With Honey and Vinegar

• 4 medium leeks (about 1.1kg .), white and pale green parts only, tough outer layers removed (root ends left intact)

• 2 tablespoons sherry vinegar or red wine vinegar

• 2 teaspoons vegan honey

• 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling

• Kosher salt, freshly ground pepper

Prepare a grill for high heat. Rinse off any sand and dirt from leeks and pat dry. Arrange directly on grate (no need to oil) and grill, turning every few minutes with tongs, until outsides are completely blackened (leeks should start to soften and may begin to release some juices), 12–16 minutes.

Transfer leeks to a cutting board and let rest 10 minutes (the interiors will continue to steam and get even softer as they cool).

While the leeks are resting, whisk vinegar and honey in a small bowl until honey dissolves. Set dressing aside.

Cut leeks on a diagonal into 1 1/2"–2" pieces. Transfer to a medium bowl and toss with 2 tablespoons oil; season with salt.

Transfer leeks to a platter and spoon reserved dressing over. Drizzle with more oil and season with pepper.
