👩🍳 Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Prep the Tomatoes Halve and core the tomatoes, then cut into wedges.
2. Roast Place on parchment-lined baking trays. Season with salt, thyme, and rosemary. Bake at 200°C (392°F) for 1 hour until slightly caramelized.
3. Prep the Garlic & Jars Soak garlic to peel easily, then finely chop. Wash and dry 600 ml jars thoroughly.
4. Layer & Fill Add garlic and herbs to the bottom of each jar. Layer in roasted tomatoes, sprinkling garlic and herbs between layers. Top with olive oil.
