If you grow tomatoes in the garden or in the greenhouse, you always have fresh fruit, but there can also be times when you harvest so many tomatoes that you don't even know what to do with them. Since the tomatoes don't keep forever either, you can either give them away as a gift or try the following tip: How about making dried tomatoes yourself? A delicious affair!
Here's how:
Cut the tomatoes into thick slices. You should largely remove the seeds. Then the slices are placed on a baking sheet lined with baking paper and lightly s alted. Then let it dry in the oven at 100 degrees for about eight hours. Once the tomatoes have dried, you can sprinkle the fruit with herbs or put them in olive oil. With this variant, the dried tomatoes naturally last a particularly long time. You can eat the fruit pure, on bread, on a pizza, as an antipasti or as an accompaniment to many great dishes.
A little gift idea
Put the dried tomatoes in oil, then add a few dried herbs, such as rosemary. Not only does it look beautiful, it also tastes very good. You can also add feta cheese cubes or mozzarella balls. You really do have a free hand. And because the pickles look very nice, you can also give them away.
