Cherry Tomato Confit

 

Tomato Confit

Serves 15
Serving size: about 1/3 cup

Ingredients:

  • 3 pounds cherry tomatoes (a combination of red and yellow tomatoes is great)
  • ½ Cup olive oil
  • ½ to 1 tsp kosher salt
  • 1 tsp black pepper
  • 10 garlic cloves, sliced
  • 8 large thyme sprigs

 

Instructions:

  1. Preheat oven to 275 F. Spread tomatoes onto a large rimmed baking sheet. Add oil, salt, pepper and garlic. Toss gently to coat. Tuck thyme sprigs into mixture. Bake until tomatoes are wilted but not all have burst, about 90 minutes.
  2. Cool tomato mixture to room temperature and discard thyme. Store tomatoes with oil and accumulated pan juices in an airtight container in refrigerator up to 2 weeks, or freeze up to 2 months.
