Want Better Roasted Vegetables? Stop Doing This One Thing

[elleng]

For the deepest browning and best flavor, roast vegetables on a bare, oiled tray; use foil if you want easier cleanup, and save the parchment for cookies.

Golden, crisp, burnished edges are the crowning glory of roasted vegetables. A tray of sweet potatoes with a deep caramelized crust, or broccoli that's seared and browned in just the right spots, is my culinary dream. Browning isn't just about looks; it also means deeper flavor, thanks to the sweet and nutty notes from the Maillard reaction.

But consistently achieving this result can be challenging.

1. Thanks for that.

I have been using parchment paper in situations where it looks like foil would be the better choice. It never occurred to me.
