From the Test Kitchen

You can cook just about anything in a parchment packet, or “en papillote.” The paper seals in the moisture and concentrates the flavors of the ingredients inside. Here, the wild mushrooms, like oysters, shiitakes, and trumpets, turn sweet and earthy when roasted together in the packet with quinoa and other seasonal vegetables. Toasted Marcona almonds from Spain are the perfect crunchy garnish for this wholesome meal.
