Oven Dried Tomatoes Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 250 degrees. Line a pan with parchment; for thinnest chips, use a Silpat baking mat. Arrange tomatoes, cut sides up, on pan, spaced 1/2 to 1 inch apart. Sprinkle with sugar and herbs; season with salt and pepper.
• Transfer pan to oven; dry until juices have stopped running, edges are shriveled, and pieces have shrunken slightly; timing will vary depending on the variety, ripeness, and desired degree of dryness, 1 1/2 to 6 hours. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Store in an airtight container, refrigerated, up to 3 days, or frozen, for up to 6 weeks.

Steps:

• Pre-heat the oven to 225° F.
• Cut the tomatoes in half, add fresh garlic, olive oil, basil, oregano and salt and pepper to taste.
• Spread them out on a parchment-lined cookie sheet and place in the oven.
• Bake for one hour, then turn off the oven and allow the tomatoes to sit overnight in the warmth of the oven.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Arrange the tomatoes on a sheet pan, cut sides up, in a single layer. Drizzle with olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Sprinkle the garlic, sugar, salt, and pepper over the tomatoes. Roast for 25 to 30 minutes, until the tomatoes are concentrated and beginning to caramelize. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F; position oven racks in the center of the oven.
• Remove the seeds and pulp and discard.
• Pour 1/4 cup oil in each of two glass baking dishes; place tomatoes, cut side down, in the baking dishes.
• Scatter the garlic and thyme among the tomatoes; with a sharp knife, make a slit in each tomato half.
• Bake the tomatoes until the skins start to wrinkle, about 45 minutes; pinch off the skins, flip the tomatoes, and bake again until the surfaces look dry, about 1 hour.
• Flip again and bake until the surfaces again look dry but tomatoes are still slightly plump, 2 hours longer.
• Season with salt and pepper and let cool.
• Discard thyme and peel garlic.
• In 5 half-pint jars, layer tomatoes with garlic; cover, by 1-inch, with additional olive oil.
• Slide a knife inside the jars to release any air bubbles; seal.
• Keep refrigerated up to 2 months; 6 months in freezer.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 250°. Fill a large saucepan two-thirds with water; bring to a boil. Cut a shallow "X" on the bottom of each tomato. Place tomatoes, a few at a time, in boiling water just until skin at the "X" begins to loosen, about 30 seconds. Remove and immediately drop into ice water. Pull off and discard skins., Cut tomatoes in half lengthwise. Combine tomatoes, oil, basil, garlic, salt and pepper; toss to coat. Transfer tomatoes, cut side up, to a greased 15x10x1-in. baking pan. Roast until tomatoes are soft and slightly shriveled, about 5 hours. Cool completely; refrigerate.
