Ingredients
Cooking process
For this type of preparation, it is necessary to choose dense tomatoes with a fleshy core, preferably of the same size - small. We have chosen the type of cream. Rinse the tomatoes with cool water, put them on a towel to dry, or wipe them dry with a towel. Cut each tomato in half and use a teaspoon to remove the core (cores from tomatoes can be folded into a tray and frozen, and used in soups and stews in winter).
Sprinkle the tomatoes lightly with salt and spices. We set the levels on the dryer and set the drying mode for vegetables or the temperature of 60-70 degrees. The number of hours to dry depends on the size of the tomatoes and the temperature in the dryer. On average, this takes 6 to 14 hours. The levels in the dryer must be rearranged every 1-1.5 hours.
At this time, we will start preparing a fragrant dressing: pour two types of oil into a saucepan (if you want, you can use only olive oil, but this option will be more expensive). Add salt and Italian herbs to the oil. Stir and heat the oil, but do not boil. Pour the hot aromatic oil into a jar so that it covers all the tomatoes. It is necessary to lightly tap the bottom of the can on the work surface several times so that all air bubbles come out. Close the jar tightly with a lid, let the oil cool and put the sun-dried tomatoes in the refrigerator for storage.
