what is the best way to make oven dried tomatoes?
Answers:
Herbed Oven-Dried Tomatoes
Ingredients
2 pounds (1 kg) ripe Roma (plum) tomatoes, halved
4 tablespoons sea salt
Freshly ground pepper
1 tablespoon dried marjoram
1 tablespoon dried basil
Bay leaves
Black peppercorns
2 cloves garlic, cut into slivers
Extra virgin olive oil
Instructions
Scoop out the tomato seeds with your fingers, and discard, leaving the fibrous tissue intact. Place the halves, cut side up, on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Sprinkle with the salt, pepper, marjoram, and basil. Place the tray in a preheated oven at 210 degrees F. (100 degrees C.) for 12 hours. If the tomatoes are drying out too quickly, leave the oven door slightly ajar. When the tomatoes are dry and have cooled, pack them into a sterlized jar. Add a bay leaf, a few peppersorns, and some garlic slivers, cover with olive oil, and seal. Store in refrigerator up to three months.
Yield: one 4-cup jar
