Notes
This will make just under 450 gram (1 lbs) of dried tomatoes.
Store in the fridge for up to a week, or much, much longer when used as an ingredient in pasta sauces which can be frozen
I will be making my own video soon, but the one above should give some ideas.
(Waiting for my own home grow tomatoes to ripen at the moment)
