SLOW-ROASTED TOMATOES WITH OLIVE OIL AND LIME

Steps:

• Center a rack in the oven and heat to 200 degrees. Have a nonreactive baking pan at hand that can hold the tomatoes comfortably, such as a 9-inch, deep-dish pie plate.
• Put a large saucepan of water to boil and fill a large bowl with cold water and ice cubes. Cut a shallow X in the bottom of each tomato, and one by one, drop them into the boiling water. Count 15 to 20 seconds, then transfer the tomatoes to the bowl of ice water. Peel each tomato. Using a small knife, remove each tomato's core, creating a V-shaped hollow an inch or so deep. Arrange the tomatoes in the pan.
• Put the sugar in a small bowl, then finely grate the zest from both limes over it. Rub the ingredients together between your fingertips until the sugar is moist and aromatic and maybe colored. Spoon an equal amount of sugar into each tomato.
• If you're using lemon or lime oil or extract, stir it into the olive oil. Spoon the olive oil over the tomatoes, allowing just a few drops to fall into the tomatoes' hollows.
• Bake for 2 to 3 hours, basting a couple of times each hour, until the tomatoes are soft all the way through but still hold their shape. (You can poke them with a bamboo skewer or the tip of a thin knife to test.) Remove the dish from the oven, and season the tomatoes with salt and pepper.
• These are best served at room temperature, but can also be enjoyed warm or even chilled. Spoon a little oil from the baking dish over each tomato just before serving. These are at their peak the day they are made, but they'll hold for a day in the refrigerator. If you've refrigerated the tomatoes, it's best to serve them either chilled or at room temperature.

POTATOES BAKED WITH TOMATOES, OLIVES, & FETA

• Add the olive oil to a heavy pan set over medium heat. Cook the onions until soft, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic, cumin, chili, and oregano and cook, stirring, for another minute. Stir in the sugar, vinegar, and tomatoes. Add a couple pinches of salt and a bit of freshly ground black pepper. Taste and add additional salt if you'd like.
• Add the potatoes to the baking dish and top with olives. Toss lightly. Pour the tomato mixture over the top. Crumble the feta over the tomatoes, drizzle with a little olive oil, and sprinkle with the remaining 1/2 teaspoon oregano.
• Bake for 25 - 30 miinutes until heated through.

BAKED TOMATOES WITH OLIVES

• Prepare tomatoes for stuffing by cutting 1/4-inch off of the tops of each. Using a small spoon or melon baller, scoop out seeds and center flesh to make each into a hollow cup (leaving at least 1/4-inch of flesh around sides and bottom). Fill each tomato with 1/2 cup (approximately 3 ounces) of spelt mixture. Top with breadcrumb mixture and place on a high sided baking pan.
• Broil under medium-high heat for 45-90 seconds until golden brown. Serve warm or room temperature.
