Expert Tips for Perfect Roasted Vegetables

1. Use High Heat

Roasting at 425°F helps vegetables caramelize and develop rich flavor.

2. Don’t Crowd the Pan

Vegetables need space for air circulation. Overcrowding leads to steaming instead of roasting.

3. Cut Vegetables Evenly

Uniform sizes ensure everything cooks at the same rate.

4. Add Parmesan Cheese

For extra flavor, sprinkle grated Parmesan during the last 5 minutes of roasting.

5. Use Fresh Herbs

Fresh rosemary, thyme, and parsley provide a stronger flavor than dried herbs.

Variations
