Ingredients for roasted tomatoes:
6 to 10 tomatoes (any size or color)

1 tsp. fresh oregano, thyme, or parsley
Pre-roasting the tomatoes for an hour or more in a slow oven (about 275) evaporates the water and concentrates the flavor.

2 Tbsp. melted butter or olive oil
¼ cup finely grated parmesan or other hard cheese
