Roasting halved tomatoes enhances caprese salads by intensifying flavor, removing excess water, and adding richness, while also providing an opportunity to layer seasonings.
Slow-roasting tomatoes brings out their natural sweetness, softens tartness, and improves texture—key for those using less ripe tomatoes that lack umami.
Caramelizing sugars during roasting balances tomato acidity, creating layers of flavor that transform caprese salads from ordinary to extraordinary.
Removing seeds before roasting not only improves texture and smoothness in salads but also speeds up cooking by reducing moisture in thicker tomato varieties.
