Cherry Tomato Confit

Confit ( pronounced: con-FEE ) is a cooking technique where food is slow-cooked in liquid. In this case, cherry tomatoes get slow-cooked in a bath of olive oil along with garlic, rosemary, thyme, and salt. The process renders them into soft, luscious little jewels that literally melt in your mouth.
