Notes
Chef Jenn's tips
It's really quite hard to mess up smoking tomatoes, but here are a few tried and true tricks to help them turn out perfectly every time:- Make sure your tomatoes are cut nice and thick. Thin slices can stick to the grill pan or can disintegrate when you try to move them
- Use a grill pan versus a solid bottom container to let the smoke circulate more easily
- Don't over-season them. Let the tomato flavor shine through with just a bit of salt, pepper, and garlic. A touch of fresh rosemary or thyme are also nice additions
- Low and slow is the name of the game - don't turn the heat up too high. 225-F is my favorite sweet spot for roasting tomatoes
