HOW TO ROAST CANNED TOMATOES RECIPE - (4.5/5)

Steps:

• Layer into sandwiches and on toast Silky, luscious roasted tomatoes are way more seductive than ketchup on a sandwich, and pack even more umami intensity. Use them to up your turkey sandwich game, and you'll never look back. Layer them on toast with slabs of fresh mozzarella. And definitely be sure to tuck them into your next batch of grilled cheese. Serve as a side dish Stewed tomatoes are boring. But roasted tomatoes make a brilliant side dish for roast chicken and roasted white fish like cod, adding an intense hit of flavor and juiciness.

CANNED TOMATOES

Steps:

• Prepare an ice-water bath; set aside. Bring a large stockpot of water to a boil. Score an X in the bottom of each tomato. Boil tomatoes in batches until skins begin to split, 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer to the ice-water bath; let cool slightly. Peel, core, and halve tomatoes. Working over a sieve set in a bowl, remove seeds. Discard seeds, and reserve juice.
• Add lemon juice, if using (see note above), 1 teaspoon salt, and 2 basil leaves to each of 6 hot, sterilized 1-quart jars. Fill jars with tomatoes, cut sides down, compressing with a rubber spatula to remove air bubbles. Add reserved juice, leaving 1/2 inch space in each jar's neck. Wipe rims of jars with a clean, damp cloth; cover tightly with sterilized lids and screw tops. Transfer jars, using tongs or jar clamp, to the rack of a large canning pot filled with hot water; cover with water by 2 inches. (Jars should be spaced 1 inch apart, and should not touch sides of pot.) Cover; bring to a boil. Process jars in gently boiling water for 45 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack; let cool 24 hours. Press down on each lid. If lid pops back, it is not sealed; refrigerate unsealed jars immediately, and use within 2 weeks. Sealed jars can be stored in a cool, dark place up to 1 year.

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Place tomatoes in a large roasting pan. With your hands, roughly tear each tomato into 1-inch strips. Add garlic and drizzle oil over top.

OVEN ROASTED CANNED TOMATOES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 300*F. Spread out the tomatoes in a large shallow pan (a sheet pan is ideal) and sprinkle with the other ingredients, turning to coat them with oil. Bake 2 1/4 to 2 1/2 hours, basting and turning the tomatoes several times. They're done when their color deepens to dark scarlet and they taste mellow and very rich. Don't let them brown, and don't allow the garlic to brown, it'll turn bitter.
• Transfer the tomatoes and their oil to a glass or china bowl. Let them mellow at room temperature up to 6 hours. The flavors will ripen in this time.
• Refrigerate the tomatoes up to 4 days, or freeze up to 3 months. Serve the tomatoes at room temperature, or tossed with hot pasta.
