Sun Dried Cherry Tomatoes

An easy way to preserve an over-abundance of cherry tomatoes is to put them in a jar

 

  • Preheat oven to 200ยบ
  • Rinse (4 C) tomatoes and dry with a tea towel
  • Place in a mixing bowl and add 1 TBL EVOO
  • Add 1/2 tsp each crushed oregano, salt and pepper
  • Place on a parchment lined baking sheet in a single layer
  • Place a knife prick in each tomato
  • Leave in hot oven for 2 hours
  • Start checking every 10-15 minutes
    • You are looking for rubbery, not crisp
  • Allow to cool completely
  • Place on a new sheet, and freeze 3-4 hours
  • Place a handful in a food storage bag.
  • Return to freezer for up to 12 months

You can use as tomatoes if you let them soak in water for an hour.

You can also eat them as a cool beat-the-heat-of-the-summer snack.
