Drying tomatoes (stove)

This is easy but takes time.
and to see how I did it here's my youtube's video.

So I cut my tomatoes in two.
Take the insides (middle and seeds) out
this will pevent your tomatoes from tasting bitter.
Then you place them cut side up on a flat pan.
Then at very low temperature you cook for as long as it takes for them to dry.
It may take 4-5 hours. even more if you have bigger tomatoes.
If you have a dehydrator it could work too. Or a solar oven or just on a pan it the sun for a whole day. That's how they used to make them after all.
Once they're done you store them in a sealed plastic bag in the refrigerator.
They add a great taste to spagetti sauce, pizzas, salsa....evrything!
