August, time of jarred food! Here a summer classic: The sun-dried tomatoes. To prepare dried tomatoes in the traditional way it takes a week of sun.

Umm ... a week... fortunately, there is another way to make delicious dried tomatoes in &quot;only&quot; 10 to 14 hours! 

This process is not fast, but the result is delicious, and it will comfort on cold winter days, bringing a little &#x27;sun even in December, unless you live in California, lucky guys!

LONG TIME CANNING: this is the most traditional way to preserve Sun-dried tomatoes in Italy: the vegetables are stored at least 1 month up to 6 months before being eaten. The long time canning requires a water-bath and a dry, dark and cool place where store the jars. But, long time preserving could be dangerous if not done properly, so I strongly suggest you read the USDA Guide to Home Canning carefully.

To serve, heat a corn tortilla in a hot dry pan or over a gas flame, then transfer to a clean tea towel to keep warm while you heat the rest.
