Absolutely true! And they taste great this way. I prefer to freeze in small freezer bags and they last for nearly a year and thaw very quickly. Tip: freeze flat, separated, then bag and return to the freezer to keep them from sticking.
@@ScuttleProductions thank you for the message. It came out wonderful. Jar is chilling now in our refrigerator waiting to be enjoyed. Mmmm maybe some pasta with a vodka sauce from out Roma tomatoes. Again tha thank you.
@@jeanniemesserschmidtz1954 if you read through the comments that I've added since publishing this video, you'll find additional storage tips. I've found that for long-term storage (more than a week or so), I prefer to freeze them without oil. Then I remove what I need, as I need it and they thaw very quickly. To freeze, I'd lay flat to freeze, then combine once frozen to help prevent sticking. Enjoy!
Just made mine but with the seeds and juice. I left 9 hours in dehydrator and they are beautiful thank you! This was super easy why I have never done this before!
Very informative video. The dehydrator will arrive anytime now. It's 4:41 pm and i'm checking the front of our place like a hawk. I planted eight Roma tomato plants and two San Marzano and I will be making lots of sun (Presto 6300) dried tomatoes this summer.
Let me know how they turn out! I'm happy to hear it. I need to get another dehydrator to double my capacity. One thing I've found since posting this video is that my preferred way to store a lot of sun-dried tomatoes is to bag them in freezer bags and freeze (labeled, of course). The oil solidifies over time in the fridge, which makes them harder to eat or use unplanned. However, it is easy to leave the jar of oil/toms out for a few minutes, take what you want, then put back in the fridge, so it is a matter of preference.
Thank you for such an informative video! Making these now! We have lots of tomatoes that we had to pick early, because of frost. We've canned, frozen, and eaten so many already. Time for something different. 🤗
I'm glad you like the recipe. I hope you're happy with how they came out. In the comments section I wrote more about storage. I prefer to store mine labeled in freezer bags, without oil. Oil often solidifies in the fridge.
@@ScuttleProductions Yes, I would definitely be storing mine in the freezer. They are still dehydrating. It's been 5 hours. They smell amazing! Thank you!
@@nicolelyons9416 Yes, please do let me know.

Hello, thank you for your question. If you do salt them, they should last at room temperature for a few weeks. But, there are so many variables, such as relative humidity, remaining moisture content and pH level. So, there is no guarantee that they will not spoil at room temp. For best results, refrigeration will certainly help to preserve tomatoes for many months. I wish I could give you a set number of days, but when making them at home it is difficult to pinpoint an expiration date. If you choose to refrigerate in oil, the oil will often solidify (which appears yellow). Simply leave the jar on the counter for a few minutes to loosen up the oil. Do not microwave.
I think that with some salt (while dehyrdrating) and oil, they should keep for a week or so at room temp. When packed in oil and refrigerated, the oil often solidifies. If you remove the jar from the fridge, it only takes 5 to 10 minutes at room temp for the oil to liquefy. Then simple remove what you need and return the rest to the fridge. But, for longer storage, the fridge or freezer is ideal. Since publishing this video I've preferred to just tightly bag and freeze them, because they can come to room temp in just minutes, when removed from the freezer, or can be directly added to recipes.
You can make mini pizza bites without the dough crust. Add Parmesan cheese and if you like a slice Pepperoni. Just like an appetizer for you or your guests. And keto friendly too.
The difference between dehydrated and sun dried. The sun adds Vitamin D, while dehydration does not. Therefore, you cannot call your tomatoes sun dried. Right? Illiteracy. Stamp it out.
Wow, so simple, and it's now my new obsession!
You did an excellent job
Thank you! A crisp, precise and clear communicator. You take it to an art. Very helpful information. Grateful! Subscribed. 🌹👏👏👏👏
Good video I especially liked the idea of putting the herbs on the tomatoes
Good job.
Excellent video. Thank you.
Absolutely fabulous! I love sun-dried tomatoes but so expensive to buy in stores....now I can make my own....

This was awesome!! Make more videos!
He's got tons more. Over 100 cooking videos.
Thank you❤️❤️❤️❤️ just found your channel. Dehydrator is loaded with fresh garden tomatoes now. Thank you for the wonderful recipe.
Thank you for the feedback! I hope yours came out nicely. Great job!

@@ScuttleProductions thank you!!!!
Straight and to the point. Thanks for the video!
Thank you very much! There are plenty more recipe videos on my page if you want to take a look. And if you have recommendations, feel free to shout.
Hi Bilzarkz, have you tried this yet? I might make more at home soon. My stock is running low!
Awesome tips, thanks! Using the scissors at the end is genius.
Thank you very much! I am happy you got a lot from it.
Just made mine but with the seeds and juice. I left 9 hours in dehydrator and they are beautiful thank you! This was super easy why I have never done this before!
Just bought a dehydrator. I’m certainly going to give this recipe a try. You should be selling these!
Very informative and thorough, thank you
Great tutorial.
Right to the point. 👍
Thank you, Joshua.
Awesome 👏🏻. My stove does have a dehydrate.
That is a great feature to have! You can make dried tomatoes forever.
Great information. I use these to make a garlic sun-dried sour dough bread. It is a killer. Thanks
Thanks for sharing. That sounds excellent!
Thanks buddy 😌👍🍅
Your method and recipe is the best so far. Will have a lot of beefsteak tomatoes which are ripening on the vine as we speak.
Very informative video.

Great tips I didn’t know I should store it in olive oil if not in freezer! Thank you!
I feel like this video just took me back to the year 2006
❤ These would be perfect in pasta sauce. Thank you so much for this recipe ❤
Great video! Thank you for posting!
Thank you. I hope you enjoy it.

fabulous!!!! Thank you. I am going to try this because I have like 3 pounds of cherry tomatoes. Clearly, I'll be up all night ;)
Enjoy! cherry tomatoes should dehydrate much quicker. I don't usually remove the seeds from them. I hope you like them.
Thank you!
You're very welcome. Thanks for watching.
yay something else to use my air fryer for
I think you’re my new TH-cam crush! Love this recipe and explanation! Thank you so much can’t wait to try!
Thank you! I'm happy you like it. There are lots more recipe videos on my page. Feel free to have a look.
Hi Natyan32, have you tried this recipe yet?
These are really good as laxatives. I like them so much. I am careful to not eat them before running errands.
Learning to dehydrate tomatoes from Billy Joe himself? Noice
Hell yeah. I decided to explore culinary arts.
I love this, thank you!
I hope you enjoy :)
@@ScuttleProductions I'm going to try it out tomorrow and I'll let you know, but I'm sure it'll be fantastic.

Great video. I think i over dried mine.
Hello please tell me what is the shelf life at room temperature with and without the oil. Thanks for your video.

@@ScuttleProductions
I think cutting them in thinner slices might help prolonging the shelf life. Thanks
More recipes please! Just discovered this channel and very disappointed with TH-cam for not suggesting it sooner when I searched for recipes.
Thank you! I've got at least 100 recipe videos to date but you're right. I need to upload the more recent ones here.
what do you have to do to safely keep them in oil on the counter?
I think that with some salt (while dehyrdrating) and oil, they should keep for a week or so at room temp. When packed in oil and refrigerated, the oil often solidifies. If you remove the jar from the fridge, it only takes 5 to 10 minutes at room temp for the oil to liquefy. Then simple remove what you need and return the rest to the fridge. But, for longer storage, the fridge or freezer is ideal. Since publishing this video I've preferred to just tightly bag and freeze them, because they can come to room temp in just minutes, when removed from the freezer, or can be directly added to recipes.
How about boiling with vinegar and water ? After dehydrating. Is that necessary?
Hi Sheila, no, I wouldn't do that because that would rehydrate the tomatoes. That would be more like pickling them instead of dehydrating them.
What do you use them for?
They are great on pasta, pizza (add towards the end or under cheese to avoid burning), or even as a snack. They're also good on crackers with cheese.
On salads too.
You can make mini pizza bites without the dough crust. Add Parmesan cheese and if you like a slice Pepperoni. Just like an appetizer for you or your guests. And keto friendly too.
Watching this again...Oct. 2023.👍
👍👍👍👏👏👏
where to store these tomatoes?
I recommend storing tightly in freezer bags. Label with the date and store in the freezer for long term storage.
@@ScuttleProductions Thank you. Good luck.
What temp in dehydrator
my dehydrator doesn't have temperature settings. I think 170 F should do. You could turn the heat down towards the end if needed.
This is the one I was looking for, I don’t like the crunchy chips
You've come to the right place. These recipes are made for people who love food, by someone who loves food too. Feel free to share.
Very knowledgeable and I like all your instructions. But please the background music is very annoying
Good instructions. Background music is annoying as heck and totally unnecessary.
Wicked hair is distracting.
I'll be sure to change my hairdo for you! Maybe a Mohawk or mullet would be an improvement.
@@ScuttleProductions Meant it as a compliment, that would sound interesting.
The food channel with the wackiest hairdo!
With this quarantine it's only getting wackier every day!

Trolls. Stamp them out. Someone missed the whole point of the video.
