We are making a quick snack using dried tomatoes. According to my partner, this snack is a highly addictive hors d’oeuvre that partners well with cheese, wine, and some spirits or Japanese beer. This is one of my partner’s favorite snacks to have with alcoholic drinks and he often requests me to make this for him. 🙂
It’s quite salty, because dried tomatoes are very salty, but it’s keto-friendly, and the ingredients are all natural, so I think it can be a pretty healthy snack. 😀
The key to making it delicious is to use good-quality olive oil!
