You can bake paper?

In this week's installment of "Recipes Tested," Adrienne Penaloza makes fish in paper.

My main concern when cooking isn’t overcooking the meat, burning the garlic, or even adding a tablespoon of salt when the recipe calls for a teaspoon (that yielded some very salty cookies). My main concern is doing the dishes. This is why I hardly ever bake—by the time the cake is in the oven, I’ve got a kitchen sink full of measuring cups and spoons, a spatula, mixing spoon, mixing bowls, and then there’s the cake-encrusted pan. I just can’t help but feel a sense of dread when, after enjoying my meal, I’ve got to roll my sleeves up and get my hands dirty again. That’s why I love to make soups and pasta, because these one-pot meals require minimal cleaning.
