Prepare the Tomatoes
Chop the garden tomatoes into small pieces and place them in a bowl. Sprinkle with a pinch of salt and let them sit for about 10 minutes to draw out some moisture.

Roast the Tomatoes
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Spread the chopped tomatoes on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and roast for 20-25 minutes, or until they are caramelized and slightly dried.

Make the Butter

Chill the Butter
Transfer the tomato butter to a piece of parchment paper or plastic wrap. Roll it into a log shape and twist the ends to seal. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour or until firm.
