👨‍🍳 Method

  1. 1
    Preheat the oven to 100°C (210°F).
    ⚙ Preheating the OvenOven
    💡Put things in the oven only once it's reached temperature, after the heating light has gone off: an oven that hasn't reached temperature changes baking times, and the bake burns outside or stays underbaked.
  2. 2
    Cut the vegetables in two.
    KnifeCutting board
  3. 3
    Spread on a baking sheet in a single layer, without crowding, cut side up.
    Baking pan
  4. 4
    Sprinkle the salt, sugar, black pepper, thyme and rosemary on top and drizzle with half the olive oil.
  5. 5
    Roast the vegetables in a hot oven (100°C / 210°F) 210–240 minutes, until the tomatoes are shriveled and concentrated.

    💡Give it room in the pan: crowded vegetables steam instead of browning.
  6. 6
    Let the vegetables cool, pack it in a jar with the garlic and the rest of the olive oil, and keep refrigerated up to 2 weeks.
