Dehydrator - Sundried Tomatoes

Use the Roma or Plum variety of tomato and cut into 1cm thick pieces. Drain on paper and then place in your dehydrator with enough space in between each to have air circulate.

it will take between 8 and 16 hours, but check as you don't want to overdry tomatoes. Tomatoes should be leathery but pliable and non sticky. Rather in texture like a raisin.

Let them dry completely and then keep them in an air tight container and they will last for 6 months. To store in oil, you will need to rehydrate them, so soak them in boiling water for 5-10 mins. Dip them in either wine or distilled vinegar, then pack them in a jar with olive oil and some herbs such as, thyme or oregano, and some sliced garlic. Allow this to sit at room temperature for 4 to 8 hours. Then place them in the refrigerator.
