Dried Tomatoes in Olive Oil
Categories: NoneServes: 1 servings
Ingredients:
- 1 c Extra light olive oil
- 1 lb Dried tomato slices
- White wine vinegar
Instructions:
Dip dried tomato slices in vinegar. Shake off excess. Pack in a jar and
cover with olive oil. Store at a cool temperature 1 month before use.
Refrigerate for up to 6 months. The oil solidifies at refrigerator
temperatures, but quickly liquefies at room temperatures.
Makes 1 pint. CAUTION: Do not add fresh garlic or fresh herbs to oil packed
tomatoes. The US Department of Agriculture cautions against this because
garlic and herbs are low-acid foods which create a low-acid, anaerobic
environment when placed in oil. This could result in the perfect breeding
ground for botulinum, the bacteria causing botulism.
