¼cupextra-virgin olive oil

⅔cupthinly sliced garlic

¼cupchopped fresh herbs, such as oregano, basil, thyme and/or parsley

½teaspoonsalt

½teaspoonground pepper

Directions

Position oven racks in upper and lower thirds of oven; preheat to 300°F Line 2 rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.

Halve tomatoes (quarter any large plum tomatoes). Divide the tomatoes between the prepared baking sheets, placing them cut-side up. Drizzle with oil and sprinkle with garlic, herbs, salt and pepper. Bake the tomatoes, switching the pans from top to bottom and back to front halfway through, until shriveled, about 2 1/2 hours for cherry tomatoes and about 5 hours for plum tomatoes. Let cool completely before refrigerating for up to one week or freezing for up to six months. They quickly thaw at room temperature or under warm water, or set them in the fridge overnight.

Serve warm or at room temperature. You can also use the tomatoes on top of pizza, flatbread or in a bread salad.

Nutrition Facts(per serving)

  • Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
