Oh sweet slow roasted tomatoes - lush and gorgeous - sweet and sticky ... they ll be preserved tomorrow in oil .. ( if I don’t eat them all) they re not quite dried out as it takes hours on a very low heat in the oven ... but it’s going to be sooooooooo worth it. . . I used mainly cherry tomatoes cut in half - I oiled the oven tray first - cut up all the tomatoes - tried to chop the bigger ones to the size of the cherry tomatoes - so they cook around the same speed. . . I added - basil - oregano- sea salt - and cooked them at 100 degrees - keep checking them .. . . Once they re done I m packing them in levels with more herbs till jars are filled then adding rape seed oil. 🙌. . This is a great way to use the tomatoes you ve not got time to process - but can’t freeze as they are a bit battered. . . ( I cut the battered bits off and the chickens got those !!) . . No filter needed here!! . . Loads more tomatoes to ripen - I m starting to pick them off the plants and bring in doors to ripen. .. . @daddyofgeeks this was before baking !! . #tomato #tomatoes #ovendriedtomatoes #tomatopreserves #presevedtomatoes #tomatoesinoil #homemadepreserves #homegrown #kitchengarden #allotmentlife #allotmentgarden #lovethislife #blessed https://www.instagram.com/p/Bn9nHUYgyfC/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=8yfqqjozy9mt
