About

This confit is somewhat luxurious and takes a bit of extra effort to produce, but the little pearls of tomato flesh are sweeter and more delicate than our regular Tomato Confit. We spoon these over grilled vegetables or fish. Try them in Grilled Summer Squash, Za’atar & Cherry Tomato Confit.
