How to Make Half Dried Tomatoes
Reviews
Half Dried Tomatoes
It all started with a Gordon Ramsey recipe that called for half roasted tomatoes (recipe review coming soon). I could not find half dried tomatoes at the grocery store, so I decided I should make them. All the recipes I found were based in Australia or Europe (I had to convert to imperial), so I thought it would be great to share my version of the recipe. I love using these in place of traditional fully dried tomatoes. They give quite a bit of flavor. They also provide a great base for making pasta sauce.
