Hi Sarah,

Nice meeting you today! Thanks for the blog network tip.

I love slow roasted tomatoes so much! I usually roast them with slices of garlic and a few sprigs of thyme.

Hey Mark,

Not a dumb question at all!

They do dry out and get crispy, if you let them go long enough. But the taste is just ok at that stage. I like them to be shrunken to about half their original size, dark red, still with a little juice but not juicy. Does that make sense?

I’d like to try this. Here’s a dumb question: How dry do you let them get? Still a little moist and pliable? Do they ever dry crisp?

Maybe I’ll just have to try it and see…

Delicious. Roasted tomatoes do give a completely different flavor. I have what is likely the last big batch here, and I think I’ll roast several of them to go with the eggplant I’m planning on (yes, its true, I’ve been eating eggplant many times a week….) The only thing with roasted tomatoes is that its hard to wait all that time while they cook!
