Tomato: Roasted

The best way to harvest that bounty of meaty, bursting tomatoes your neighbor has given you — along with the handful that you have grown yourself — is to simply roast them in your oven, and then freeze them.

This method of preservation works with cherry, Roma, Beefsteak, and plumb tomatoes — any and all tomatoes are welcome to jump on the parchment paper and enter the sauna.

    Olive Oil
    Parchment Paper
    Oven pre-heated to 350 degrees F.
  1. Cover parchment paper in olive oil.
  2. Slice tomatoes and place on parchment paper.
  3. Place in oven for an hour or two — then turn off the oven and let the tomatoes continue to “dry.”
  4. Scrape off the tomatoes into a mason jar to keep in your freezer.

Bonus: Right now — place a tortilla shell right on the parchment paper, add cheese to the tortilla shell and stick back into the oven to make a pizza.
