Instructions

Preheat your oven to a low temperature of 200 degrees F (95 degrees C).
Wash and halve your favorite tomatoes. Gently remove the seeds. Arrange the tomato halves on a nonstick baking sheet and season with salt to your liking.
Bake in the preheated oven until the tomatoes are very dry but still flexible. Begin checking after 4 hours, and then check hourly. Remember that larger tomatoes may need more time in the oven.
