For a dramatic presentation, parchment paper used for cooking en papillote should be

Explanation:
"En papillote" is a cooking technique where the food is wrapped into an envelope and then cooked. Commonly parchment paper is used, but it can also be done with aluminum foil. The food cooks by steam as it holds in the moisture, and should be served to the table without opening, to allow the diners to experience the aromas and steam of the food coming out of the parcel.
