Tomato And Herb Paste

Recipe Ingredients

8		Sun-dried tomatoes
		Water - as needed
2 tablespoons	30ml	Freshly-chopped basil
2 tablespoons	30ml	Freshly-chopped parsley
1 tablespoon	15ml	Minced garlic
1 tablespoon	15ml	Olive oil
1/8 teaspoon	0.6ml	Sea salt

Recipe Instructions

In a small bowl, place the sun-dried tomatoes, cover them with water, and set them aside for 20 to 25 minutes to rehydrate. Drain the water from the sun-dried tomatoes, but reserve it for use in the recipe.

Transfer the rehydrated tomatoes to a food processor, add 3 tablespoons of the soaking liquid (saving the remainder for use in another recipe), and process for 1 minute.

Scrape down the sides of the container, add the remaining ingredients, and process for 1 to 2 minutes to form a smooth puree. Taste and adjust seasonings, to taste. Transfer the mixture to an airtight container and store in the refrigerator.

Serve as a dip or spread for vegetables, crackers, or breads, as a sandwich filling, or to add flavor to sauces, dressings, salads, grains, or other side dishes.

This recipe yields 1/2 cup.
