Grilled Spiced White Mushrooms

Cooks' notes:

•If you aren't able to grill outdoors, mushrooms can be grilled in a hot lightly oiled well-seasoned ridged grill pan over moderately high heat.
•If you aren't able to find medium mushrooms, you can use small ones but will need to grill them on a lightly oiled perforated grill sheet or slide them onto soaked wooden skewers to prevent them from falling through the grill rack.
