Canned san marzanos tomatoes are wonderful, particularly when roasted slowly, as called for in this simple, classic recipe. Enjoy it on its own as a side dish, mixed into cold (or hot) pasta, served on grilled or toasted bread as antipasto, interleaved with fried eggplant slices, or as a pizza topping.
Ingredients
