Roasted tomatoes

Roasted tomatoes are a simple yet delicious dish that brings out the natural sweetness and flavors of tomatoes. This recipe turns ordinary tomatoes into a delightful side dish or a flavorful addition to salads, pastas, and sandwiches. With just a few basic ingredients, you can easily make this savory treat at home.

Ingredients:

6 tomatoes
780g
2 tbsp olive oil
27g
2 tbsp vinegar
30g

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Tomatoes: Wash the tomatoes thoroughly under running water. Pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel. Cut each tomato in half lengthwise and place them in a large mixing bowl.
2. Season the Tomatoes: Drizzle the 2 tablespoons of olive oil over the tomato halves. Then, pour the 2 tablespoons of vinegar over them as well. You can use balsamic, red wine, or your preferred type of vinegar to add a specific flavor profile. Toss the tomatoes gently to ensure they are evenly coated with the olive oil and vinegar.
3. Arrange on Baking Sheet: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. Arrange the seasoned tomato halves on the baking sheet, cut side up. Make sure the tomatoes are spread out in a single layer to ensure even roasting.
4. Roast the Tomatoes: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven. Roast the tomatoes for about 45 to 60 minutes, or until they are tender and the edges are slightly caramelized. The exact roasting time may vary based on the size and moisture content of the tomatoes.
5. Cool and Serve: Once roasted to your desired doneness, remove the tomatoes from the oven and allow them to cool slightly. Serve them as a side dish, toss them into salads, blend them into soups, or use them as a flavorful topping for bruschetta or pasta.
6. Storage: If you have any leftovers, store the cooled roasted tomatoes in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. They can also be stored in the freezer for up to 3 months.

Tips:

- Choose ripe but firm tomatoes to prevent them from becoming too mushy during roasting.

- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) for optimal roasting conditions.

- Use a good quality olive oil for the best flavor.

- Season with salt, pepper, and your favorite herbs like basil, oregano, or thyme for an added layer of taste.

- For a sweeter flavor, you can add a teaspoon of honey or balsamic glaze before roasting.

- Roast the tomatoes until they are slightly caramelized and their skins start to wrinkle.
