dried tomatoes in olive oil...

The garden here is done for the year, but I found some nice tomatoes cheap at the produce store recently. I decided to dry them in my food dehydrator {a Nesco American Harvest)...

According to the user/recipe guide that came with it, the Dried Tomatoes in Olive Oil "taste better than the expensive 'sun-dried' ones at the supermarket"...I had to try it.

Here's what I did:

After the tomato slices are dehydrated, dip the slices in white wine vinegar, shake off excess, and place them in a pint jar. Then, cover them with extra light olive oil. These need to set 1 month before using, and can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 6 months.

Mid-November I will let you know how they are.
