Preparation
First, halve the tomatoes, removing the stem area, and then cut them into wedges.
Now place them on baking trays lined with parchment paper, season with salt, thyme, and rosemary, and bake for 1 hour at 200°C (392°F).
In the meantime, soak the garlic to make it easier to peel, then finely chop it with a knife.
Next, wash and dry several 600 ml jars, place some garlic, thyme, and rosemary at the bottom, then fill them with the baked tomatoes, sprinkling more garlic, thyme, and rosemary in between layers.
Finally, add the olive oil, seal the jars tightly with lids, turn them upside down, and leave them like that for 10 hours. Then turn them upright again and store them in a dry place for year-round use.
