roasted tomatoes

Oven-caramelized red fruit

Roasted tomatoes are tomatoes cooked in an oven at high heat until their skins blister and their flesh softens and caramelizes.

The roasting concentrates their sweetness and adds depth of flavor.

They appear as a side dish, pasta topping, or base for sauces and soups: I tossed the roasted tomatoes with garlic and basil.
