Slow Roasted Tomatoes Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 200°F.
• Put tomatoes, cut sides up, in 2 large shallow baking pans. Combine garlic and oil and spoon over tomatoes. Season tomatoes with salt and pepper and roast in oven 6 to 8 hours (tomatoes will be reduced in size but will retain their shape). Cool tomatoes.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 250.
• Slice tomatoes thickly, to yield about three slices per tomato.
• Place on a baking sheet.
• Mix spices and sugar.
• Brush tomatoes with olive oil, and sprinkle with a large pinch of seasoning mixture.
• Roast the tomatoes for 3 hours.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 200 degrees F.
• Cut the tomatoes in 1/2 and place them, cut-side down, on a baker's rack set in a roasting pan Drizzle the tomato halves with 3 tablespoons olive oil and roast for 1 to 1 1/2 hours, until the tomatoes are roasted to a dark red. The excess moisture will have evaporated, and the remaining tomatoes will have a delicious concentrated flavor and aroma.
• Cut the roasted tomato halves into quarters. Serve hot; toss with 3 tablespoons of olive oil and 2 tablespoons of vinegar, or the attached essences, and serve.
• Break the chiles apart. Remove the stems and seeds. If the chiles are still pliable, dry them in a warm oven (200 degrees) for about 1 hour, until they are very brittle.
• Transfer the chiles to a blender or spice grinder. Blend at high speed for at least 1 minute, until you have the finest-possible powder. Let the mixture settle for about 30 seconds before removing the cover, so the powder does not fly into the air. Use a dry pastry brush to push the powder through a strainer into a clean, dry container. Blend and strain the larger bits again.
• Store in a tightly sealed jar away from light for up to 3 months.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment or foil.
• Arrange the tomatoes, cut side-up, in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle with 1 teaspoon salt and scatter with the thyme sprigs. Bake until the tomatoes are slightly shriveled but still plump, about 5 hours.
• Use the roasted tomatoes right away or layer with fresh thyme sprigs in a resealable container and cover with oil. Refrigerate for up to 2 weeks.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 200°F with racks in upper and lower thirds.
• Put tomatoes, cut side up, in 2 large 4-sided sheet pans. Combine garlic and oil and spoon over tomatoes. Season tomatoes with salt and pepper and roast in oven 6 to 8 hours (tomatoes will be greatly reduced in size but still moist). Cool.

Steps:

• Can be made up to 2 days ahead. Heat oven to 120C/fan 100C/gas ½. Halve the tomatoes widthways and place, cut-side up, in a roasting pan. Peel the garlic cloves and slice very thinly into slivers. Put a sliver on each tomato, season and scatter over thyme or rosemary leaves. Sprinkle each with sherry vinegar, then with balsamic vinegar and finally with olive oil. Bake for 2-3 hrs until soft and slightly shrivelled. Remove and cool.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to gas mark 2/300°F/150°C.
• Place tomato halves cut side up in an oven tray.
• Place a garlic slice on top of each half.
• Mix honey, vinegar and olive oil in a bowl and drizzle over the tomatoes.
• Season with salt and pepper.
• Roast for 1 hour, till very soft and lightly charred.
• You can roast the tomatoes up to 1 day in advance, cover and refrigerate.
• Sprinkle with parsley and drizzle with oil and vinegar and serve chilled or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Place tomatoes on a rimmed baking sheet, cut side up. Drizzle with oil, and sprinkle with thyme leaves; season with salt and pepper.
• Roast until tomatoes begin to collapse, brushing occasionally with pan juices, about 90 minutes. This can be made ahead and reheated in the oven at 325 degrees for 10 to 15 minutes.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 140C/fan 120C/gas 1. Halve the tomatoes and put on baking sheets, cut sides up. Brush each lightly with a little olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Sprinkle the oregano over the tomatoes. Cook for 2-3 hrs until semi-dried. Leave to cool, then pack into a plastic container and chill for up to 24 hrs.
• When ready to serve, scatter the rocket over a platter and arrange the tomatoes on top. Drizzle with a little olive oil and balsamic vinegar, then scatter over the pine nuts.

Steps:

• Remove tomato seeds with a spoon. Place tomatoes, cut side up, on baking sheets coated with nonstick cooking spray. Sprinkle with cheese, oregano, sugar, salt and pepper; drizzle with oil. Bake at 250 degrees F for 2 hours.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 250 degrees. Take a sheet pan large enough to hold tomatoes in a single layer and line it with parchment paper. Arrange tomatoes, cut side up, in pan.
• Heat oil in heavy skillet. Add onion and cook over low heat until tender but not brown. Stir in garlic, cook a few minutes longer, and then remove from heat.
• Scatter onion and garlic over tomatoes along with pepper flakes, basil, sugar and salt. Place in oven and roast uncovered about 3 hours, until tomatoes are cooked but hold their shapes. Allow tomatoes to cool, slip off skins, then use in recipes or freeze in containers for future use.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place tomatillos and tomatoes, cut sides up, on a rimmed baking sheet. Drizzle with oil, and sprinkle with coriander; season with salt and pepper. Toss to combine, then spread in an even layer. Bake until tomatillos and tomatoes are very soft and browned in spots, 45 to 55 minutes. To store, cover and refrigerate, up to 3 days.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 300 degrees. Put the halved tomatoes in a bowl and toss with the olive oil. Oil a rack that will fit on top of a baking sheet. Place foil on the baking sheet and oil the foil, and place the rack on top. Place the tomatoes, cut side up, on the rack. Sprinkle with coarse salt and a tiny amount of sugar. Place in the oven and roast for 2 hours. Remove from the heat and allow to cool for about 30 minutes. The tomatoes will look a little dry on the surfaces and the skin will be tough. But when you bite into the tomatoes you'll experience a rush of incredibly sweet juice and pulp. If you want to use these for a sauce, put through the fine blade of a food mill.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 275 degrees F (135 degrees C).
• Mix together onion, garlic, rosemary, thyme, parsley, and basil in an 8-inch square baking pan; spread evenly in the bottom of the pan. Place tomatoes, cut-sides down, on top of the onion mixture. Drizzle olive oil on top. Sprinkle with sugar and season with salt and pepper.
• Roast in the preheated oven until tomatoes have started to collapse and are browning around the edges, about 2 1/2 hours.
