Sun-Dried Tomatoes Recipes

Sun-dried tomatoes are ripe tomatoes that have been dried until chewy, concentrated, and intensely savory-sweet. They add bold tomato flavor to recipes without the extra moisture of fresh tomatoes, making them especially useful in quick weeknight meals. Use them in pasta, grain bowls, frittatas, soups, salads, dips, flatbreads, and sandwiches. Oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes bring richness and are easy to chop into sauces or spreads, while dry-packed tomatoes can be rehydrated for a softer texture. Their deep umami flavor pairs well with creamy cheeses, fresh herbs, olives, garlic, chicken, seafood, beans, and roasted vegetables. A small amount can transform simple dishes like pesto, couscous, scrambled eggs, or white bean salad.
