Sun Dried Tomatoes (100g)

These tomatoes have their flavour concentrated to its full intensity by sun drying, and they also keep their bright red colour.

They are really simple to use – just soak in warm water for 30 minutes, rinse and drain the water away. Then use them to add loads of flavour to a variety of meals, including pasta, salads, sauces, risottos and quiche.

More ideas:

• Rinse thoroughly before soaking to remove the salt, then marinade with olive oil and basil
• Use Sun Dried Tomatoes to create a twist to traditional savoury muffin and scone recipes. Simply stir Sun Dried Tomatoes into the dry ingredients at the start of the recipe
• Marinate Sun Dried Tomatoes in extra virgin olive oil, chopped parsley, capers and chilli peppers for an authentic Italian antipasti
• Combine chopped Sun Dried Tomatoes with flaked tuna, sliced spring onion and capers for a delicious filling for jacket potatoes 
• Use Sun Dried Tomatoes to make a Mediterranean risotto. Reserve the tomato liquid to cook the risotto rice according to a basic risotto recipe. Use other seasonal pan-fried vegetables and add to the rice once cooked. Season to taste
