Slow-roasting tomatoes bring out such sweet, intense flavour. You get almost all the concentrated flavour of sun-dried tomatoes without the drying.
Mixed with tons of garlic, oregano, and fresh basil, I don’t know how it works, but it tastes like heaven in your mouth. After roasting, they take on an intensely deep flavour and can be used in many ways. It’s perfect for eating with toast, bread, crackers, salads, pasta, goat cheese, and bocconcini. You name it.
My mom has made it since I was a child, and everyone loves it.
