Oven-roasted balsamic tomatoes are a delicious and versatile dish that can be used as a side, appetizer, or even incorporated into main courses. This recipe combines the natural sweetness of ripe tomatoes with the tangy richness of balsamic vinegar, creating a harmony of flavors that's sure to impress.
Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Wash the tomatoes thoroughly under cold water.
- Cut each tomato in half, horizontally. If your tomatoes are particularly large, you may quarter them instead.
- Place the tomato halves (or quarters) cut side up in a single layer in a baking dish. Ensure that they are snug but not overlapping.
- Evenly sprinkle the minced garlic, fresh thyme, and dried oregano over the tomatoes.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and brown sugar until the sugar has dissolved.
6. Dress the Tomatoes:
- Drizzle the olive oil and balsamic mixture evenly over the tomatoes.
- Place the baking dish in the preheated oven.
- Roast the tomatoes for about 25-30 minutes, or until they begin to caramelize and the edges start to brown slightly.
- Once roasted, remove the dish from the oven. Let it cool for a few minutes before serving.
- Serve the oven-roasted balsamic tomatoes warm or at room temperature. They can be a delightful side dish, a topping for pasta, or even a flavorful addition to salads or sandwiches.
Tips:
- Choose fresh, ripe tomatoes for the best flavor and texture.
- If you prefer a more concentrated flavor, roast the tomatoes longer at a slightly lower temperature to avoid burning.
- Feel free to experiment with different herbs, such as basil or rosemary, to customize the flavors to your liking.
- Serve the roasted tomatoes warm or at room temperature. They can also be stored in the refrigerator and reheated gently before serving.
- For a more intense garlic flavor, consider using more garlic cloves or even garlic powder in addition to the fresh cloves.
Your oven-roasted balsamic tomatoes are now ready to enjoy! The roasting process enhances the tomatoes' natural sweetness while the balsamic vinegar adds a delightful tang. This dish pairs wonderfully with grilled meats, pasta, or even enjoyed on its own. Bon appétit!
