sun-dried tomato
Dehydrated red fruit
Sun-dried tomatoes are tomatoes that have been dried in the sun (or by other methods) until most of their moisture is gone, concentrating their flavor into something intensely sweet, tangy, and slightly chewy.
They're a staple of Mediterranean cooking, used in pasta, salads, and spreads: The pizza was topped with sun-dried tomatoes and goat cheese.
Often packed in oil or sold dry.
