0:00.0	Hello and welcome to a special mailbag edition of Dinner SOS.
0:15.7	I'm Chris Morocco, Food Director of Bon Appetit and Epicurious.
0:19.1	We'll be back next week with our regular episodes, but today I'm joined by my colleague
0:24.2	Shilpa Iskokovich and we're going through our inbox.
0:27.8	Hi Shilpa.
0:28.8	Hi Chris.
0:29.8	Are you ready to answer some listener questions?
0:31.8	Yes, I am.
0:32.8	Great.
0:33.8	Our producer, Jordan, has some listener questions ready for us.

1:25.8	I feel like there's two questions here.

1:33.8	And what are the keys there?
1:35.8	But then there's also this question of, okay, when it comes to a sheep pan dinner, what is the ideal way to make vegetables and proteins interact on a baking sheet?
1:47.8	In the case of how to make great roast vegetables, to your point, don't overcrowde the pan.
1:54.8	If you want actual color on things, as opposed to just kind of steaming them, dividing things across two rimmed baking sheets could be the way to go.
