Looking for a simple and delicious summer recipe? Try making Tomato Confit recipe! This easy-to-make dish involves slow-cooking tomatoes in olive oil until they're soft and bursting with flavor.
Prep: Preheat oven to 250°F (120°C). Wash and dry the tomatoes.
Assemble: Place the tomato halves in a single layer in a baking dish. Pour the olive oil over the tomatoes, making sure they are all coated. Sprinkle over the garlic and salt, then pop a few sprigs of thyme in.
Bake: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for about 1½ to 2 hours, or until the tomatoes are soft.
Serve: Remove the baking dish from the oven and let the tomatoes cool slightly. Serve as a condiment (my favorite way is over toast with ricotta cheese and basil!)
