Servings: persons

11 roma tomatoes
1/4 cup aged balsamic vinegar
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon country dijon mustard (a grainy mustard)
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (adjust to taste)
1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 cup fresh basil, chopped (or 1/4 tsp. dried)
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
2-3 garlic cloves, minced

1
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
2
Chop clean tomatoes, roughly to medium and large pieces, removing core and most seeds as you chop. Place chopped tomatoes in a baking dish. I use the cast iron dish that I serve the spread in.
3
In a separate bowl, combine remaining ingredients to make a dressing. Whisk and pour over tomatoes. Mix dressing through the tomatoes. It doesn't look like enough dressing before the roasting, but the tomatoes cook down and release more juices.
4
Roast uncovered for 1 hour. The recipe liquefies as it roasts and the tomatoes cook down significantly
5
Once roasted, any tomatoes that are too large can be cut up a bit for good spooning onto bread. I serve the tomatoes in the roasting dish with a spoon and place with sliced baguette or garlic bread on a big wooden cutting board with fresh mozzarella. It makes a nice presentation. Guests can create their own layered appetizers and eliminate the cheese if desired.
