Dried tomatoes



Have you ever eaten dried tomatoes? They are quite a common appetizer here. Dried tomatoes are often seasoned with extra virgin olive oil, oregano and garlic and layed on toasted bread.

The picture shows the very very beginning of this wonderful dish: drying the tomatoes in the sun!

The colors and arrangement look like an old still life painting.

I would worry about flies and fermentation, but I've had sun-dried tomatoes before, and they are delicious. So I better leave this to the experts. 8^)
