Roasted Garlic Tomato Spread
Ingredients
  • 2 pounds Roma tomatoes, halved lengthwise
  • 1/2 cup olive oil
  • 1 clove garlic, crushed
  • 1 tablespoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon white sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to 250 degrees Fahrenheit (120 degrees Celsius) by adjusting the temperature dial or pressing the preheat button.
2
Arrange sliced tomatoes cut-side up in a shallow baking dish, making sure they are evenly spaced and not overlapping. Drizzle a moderate amount of olive oil over the tomatoes, then sprinkle a pinch of minced garlic, dried oregano, granulated sugar, and a light dusting of salt uniformly over the top.
3
Bake the tomatoes in the preheated oven for a period of 1 hour, allowing them to cook and soften.
4
Turn the tomatoes over and continue baking until they have achieved a deep, caramelized color and are extremely tender, requiring an additional 1 to 1 1/2 hours of cooking time.
5
Remove the tomatoes from the oven and set them aside to cool to room temperature, allowing them to sit undisturbed for approximately 1 hour.
6
Transfer the cooled tomato mixture to a blender or food processor, then blend until a smooth consistency is achieved.
