Slow-Roasted TomatoesAlan Richardson

We loved these tomatoes after they were cooked for 6 hours. We served them on crusty bread with a little olive oil and thought they'd also work well as a side dish. But to toss with pasta, we wanted a more intense flavor, so we cooked them an additional 2 hours. They were perfect.

Cooks' note:

Roasted tomatoes keep in an airtight container, chilled, 2 weeks. Bring to room temperature before using.
