  • Now place them in the oven at 120°C/250°F top/bottom heat for about 10 hours.
  • When dry, remove from oven and cool on a rack.
  • Once they are completely cooled, put each in layers in a preserving jar (preferably with screw cap) and fill with olive oil. Press a little and put in the next layer. In the meantime, keep shaking gently so that no air bubbles develop. Finally, cover with a 2cm/¾in layer of olive oil and seal airtight.
  • Stored in a cool and dark place, the preserved tomatoes in oil will keep for about three to four months.
