I buy sun-dried tomatoes in the dehydrated state in a bag from Grapetree, I hydrate them in oil then use the oil for cooking just as you would ordinary olive oil, it’s great for pasta dishes and risotto.

I use it for cooking, salad dressings or adding to the ingredients when making bread.

Use it for salad dressings or dry some tomatoes slowly in the oven and when cold put them in the jar.

I am starting to use sun dried tomatoes quite a lot and I buy the jars marinated in oil with garlic and herbs. My question is what can I do with the oil etc other than dispose of it ? Is there something I could use it for instead of wasting it?
