I have a gas oven that pours out enough heat to keep me in shorts the whole winter.  So winters are filled with roasts, breads, cakes, and anything else I can come up with.  Roasting vegetables concentrates their flavor and chesman  comes up with a delightful array of how to use these vegetables.  I use the large selection of sides the most.  Some of our favorites are the herb and honey roasted carrots, soy roasted green beans and sesame roasted asparagus.  We also enjoy the simple but tasty roasted tomato sauce.
