Oven Roasted Tomatoes
The summer is coming and the tomatoes are booming all over the place, these are the things that summers are made of. Today we are going to talk about making some Oven Roasted tomatoes, these candy sweet tomato petals are exquisite eaten with a tart cheese and thick slices of toasted french bread drizzled with olive oil. More appealing than sun-dried tomatoes, they are sublimely sweet and intense, while being tender and oily. A good fate for tomatoes that are otherwise lacking in flavor.
In particular, serve oven-roasted tomatoes with a selection of goat's cheese, some wrapped in chestnut leaves, others so runny they flow out from the rind, and small powerful cheese marinated to a dark ivory in brandy. Some black olives, a large green salad and your there.
So lets start this recipe its really great tasting recipe.
