Sun-Dried Tomatoes

Tomatoes dried in the sun or a low oven until they are chewy and intense, sometimes packed in oil. Drying drives off water and concentrates the sugars and the acid.

Origin

A southern Italian way of keeping the summer tomato.

Flavour

Sweet, tangy, and strong.

How to use it

Chop oil-packed tomatoes straight in. Soak dry ones in warm water until they soften.

Storage

Dry tomatoes keep airtight. Oil-packed jars go in the fridge once open.
