TOMATO-AND-HERB CONSERVE
Extend the summer by making these oven-dried tomatoes, packed in oil with herbs, to enjoy when the warm weather is gone. They're juicier and more versatile than their sun-dried cousins; serve them on pasta or crostini with goat cheese.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Arrange tomatoes, cut-sides up, on a parchment-lined rimmed baking sheet; season with salt. Roast until tomatoes shrink and collapse slightly, about 1 hour. Let cool completely, then pack into a 2-cup-capacity jar.
- In a small saucepan, combine oil, herbs, and garlic. Bring to a bare simmer over medium heat. Carefully pour mixture into jar, topping with more oil if necessary. (Oil should fully submerge tomatoes and herbs and reach about 1/2 inch from top.) Let cool completely, then cover and refrigerate until ready to use, up to 1 month.
TOMATO CONSERVE
This recipe was presented at the 7th Annual Kohler Food & Wine Experience in Kohler, Wisconsin by Chef Ryan Anderson. Chef Anderson served this conserve with his Wisconsin Raclette Cheese Honey Truffle Pasty (I've posted my variation here at Recipezaar under Raclette, Honey, and Mushroom Pastries recipe #263143). This was a wonderful holiday appetizer with the flavors of Christmas spices!

Steps:
- Place all the ingredients in a roasting tin in a medium oven (temp 190)
- Leave for half an hour or until it all looks molten red and smells lovely and tomatoey - do not let it brown
- Puree if desired, removing the hard herbs like bayleaf and rosemary first, personally I can't bear to liquidise it and eat it like it is!
- If you are not using it immediately, let it cool then freeze it. You can use a breadknife to carve pieces off and then put it back in the freezer if you don't want to use it all at once
- This can be used with my chilli con carne recipe

Steps:
- Make vinaigrette:
- In a small bowl whisk together lime juice, salt, sugar, and pepper and add oil in a stream, whisking.
- Cut tomatoes into 1/2-inch-thick slices and arrange decoratively on a platter. Drizzle tomatoes with about two thirds vinaigrette.
- In a bowl combine herbs and scallions and toss with remaining vinaigrette.
- Mound herb mixture on top of tomato slices.
Tips:
- Choose ripe, flavorful tomatoes: The quality of your tomatoes will greatly impact the taste of your conserve. Look for tomatoes that are deep red and blemish-free.
- Use a variety of herbs: Don't be afraid to experiment with different herbs to find a combination that you like. Some popular choices include basil, thyme, rosemary, and oregano.
- Don't overcook the conserve: Overcooking the conserve will make it less flavorful and more likely to turn into a jam. Cook it just until the tomatoes have softened and the herbs have infused their flavor.
- Sterilize your jars and lids: This will help to prevent bacteria from growing in your conserve and ensure that it lasts for a long time.
- Process the jars in a boiling water bath: This will help to seal the jars and ensure that they are safe for storage.
Conclusion:
Tomato and herb conserve is a delicious and versatile condiment that can be used in a variety of dishes. It is easy to make and can be stored for up to a year. If you are looking for a way to use up your summer tomatoes, this is a great recipe to try.
