Village Tips
* Pearl onions are small white onions about the size of large marbles. They have a mild, sweet flavor.
* For easy cleanup, look for special roasting bags in the "bags and wraps" section of your supermarket; all the ingredients can be placed in the bag, then in the roasting pan. No messy roasting pan later!
