How To Roast Tomatoes Recipes

HOW TO ROAST TOMATOES

Steps:

• Choose smaller tomatoes for quicker, faster roasting. Cherry tomatoes and grape tomatoes are often used for roasting. These tomatoes cook quickly and are much easier to handle than larger tomatoes. Grape tomatoes are meatier and not as sweet as cherry tomatoes. Smaller tomatoes are often cut into halves, but they can also be roasted whole.
• Use larger tomatoes if you need ones that hold their shape better. Plum tomatoes are commonly used in roasting, although any type of tomato works. Look for Roma tomatoes, which are a tangy type of plum tomato with few seeds. They hold up well in heat, making them a great snack or ingredient in another recipe. Some large tomatoes are roasted after being cut in half. To maximize your yield, divide each tomato up into slices.
• Wash the tomatoes under running water and brush off dirt. Hold them under cold water for about 20 seconds. As you wash the tomatoes, lightly rub the tomatoes with your fingers to knock off stubborn dirt particles. Avoid using scrub brushes, since most tomatoes are too delicate to withstand them. Load smaller tomatoes in a colander to wash them more easily. You do not need to use soap or any other products to wash the tomatoes.
• Cut the tomatoes in half or in slices. Lay the tomatoes on a cutting board, then use a paring knife to split them. For smaller tomatoes, cut them lengthwise to form 2 halves that will lay flat on a baking sheet. Cut larger tomatoes horizontally to form a top and bottom half. For big tomatoes, slice the halves again horizontally. Divide them up into rings about 3⁄4 in (1.9 cm) thick. You will get 3 or 4 slices from most tomatoes. To avoid extra prep work, leave small tomatoes whole. Whole tomatoes are perfect if you plan on dicing them in a food processor later. They will burst when they're done cooking.
• Remove the stem and seeds from the tomatoes. Use a paring knife to cut the stem off the top piece of the tomato if it is still present. Then, arrange the tomatoes with the cut side facing up. Scoop out the fleshy parts with the seeds, leaving the meat of the tomatoes intact. To remove seeds from smaller tomatoes, try gently squeezing them.
