Sun-Dried Tomatoes

Cuisine: Mediterranean
Keyword: Food Recipes, Pleasures, Veggies

Ingredients

  • 4kg Tomatoes , ripe, San Marzano – Roma variety, or even cherry tomatoes, halved
  • Olive Oil enough for the jarring
  • 4 tbsp coarse Sea Salt

Instructions

  • Take 3-4 large rectangular tin trays and add the halved tomatoes, cut/flesh side up. Liberally sprinkle all-over them the coarse salt.
  • Place the tin trays in the sun while covering them with a thin transparent cloth and let the sun do its magic. Avoid keeping them outside during the evenings in case of humidity. After 3-4 days the tomatoes should be ready, they should have a leathery soft texture.
  • As you will not be using all them immediately, you can either store them in sterilized glass containers toped-up with oil and refrigerate for some months.
