Roasting

It's the last hurrah for tomatoes from the garden. The final round of sweet 100's, black crim, roma, and cherry reds have been picked. The vines are happily exhausted from a bountiful summer's harvest. They're now ready give up their green space for fall's new crop - arugula, okra and butternut squash. . <br /> <br />I love tomatoes, but by the end of the season, I'm looking for new and interesting ways to cook and eat them. God forbid I ever take them for granted! Slowly oven roasting tomatoes is my answer. When cooked in a low temperature oven for several hours, the tomatoes become concentrated and sweet. Really sweet- almost like a savory sugar candy. Originally, my idea was to can them in extra virgin olive oil, but I seriously doubt they are going to make it that far.
