ROASTED CHERRY-TOMATO SAUCE
This is a slow-roasted version of the stove-top tomato sauce, and it's jam-packed with flavor. You'll want to have it with everything -- not just over pasta but on crusty bread and scrambled eggs, and paired with soft cheeses.This recipe is one of our Better Basics: 10 New Takes on Family Favorites, see the others.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Mix together tomatoes and garlic in a nonreactive 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Whisk together oil, vinegar, thyme, brown sugar, and salt in a bowl. Drizzle over tomato mixture.
- Bake until tomatoes are softened and caramelized, about 1 hour. Serve warm or at room temperature. Sauce can be stored in refrigerator up to 5 days; let cool before storing.
SLOW-ROASTED TOMATO SAUCE WITH PASTA
Instead of standing over a bubbling cauldron all day long, wondering how many dots of sauce you can collect on your apron, let the oven do all the work. You'll want to use canned tomatoes here, rather than fresh ones, because you can trust that the canned ones were picked at peak season, their flavors amplified by being preserved in a can with a little salt. By roasting them in a low oven for a few hours, you're effectively adding umami to an already umami-packed ingredient. Well, the oven is. You're not doing a thing except boiling some pasta, and eventually, marveling at how such a rich red sauce came from such humble, any-season ingredients.

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 325 degrees. Drain the tomatoes, then transfer them to a baking sheet. Gently break the tomatoes up with your hands or kitchen scissors into a mix of big and little chunks. Stir in the garlic, olive oil, hot sauce, if using, and salt.
- Roast, stirring occasionally (and more frequently after the first hour of cooking), until the tomatoes turn dark red and the edges begin to caramelize, about 2 hours. Mash with a fork to break up the garlic and any remaining chunks of tomato.
- Bring a large pot or Dutch oven of heavily salted water to the boil. Cook your pasta al dente according to package directions. Reserve 1 cup of the pasta water, and drain the pasta. Return the pot to the stove, turn the heat to medium-high, then add the tomato sauce and 1/2 cup of pasta water. Let simmer until combined, glossy and saucy, about a minute or 2, adding more pasta water as needed. Add the pasta and toss to coat.

CREAMY PAN-ROASTED SCALLOPS WITH FRESH TOMATOES
In this homage to a classic dish at Grand Central Oyster Bar in New York, scallops are quickly poached in a creamy, piquant tomato sauce that's spiked with Worcestershire and celery seed. If you want to work a little ahead, you can make the sauce through Step 2, and leave it in the pan, covered for an hour or two. Reheat it before adding the scallops in Step 3. Then serve the scallops right away, with some bread or rice to soak up every last drop of the herby, savory sauce.

Steps:
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high and add the butter, letting it melt. Add shallots, celery seeds and a pinch each salt and pepper, and cook until the shallots are tender and opaque, about 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in tomatoes. Bring to a simmer, stirring occasionally, and cook until jammy, 9 to 13 minutes.
- Increase heat to medium-high and stir in vermouth. Cook until about a third of the liquid evaporates, about 5 minutes. Add Worcestershire and cream, and simmer, reducing heat if needed and stirring occasionally, until sauce thickens enough to coat a spoon, 5 to 7 minutes.
- Season scallops with salt and pepper, and add to the pan. Cook, uncovered, until scallops are just cooked through and opaque, 3 to 6 minutes, depending on the size of the scallops. Stir in chives and celery leaves. Serve immediately, garnished with more chives and celery leaves.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 300 degrees.
- Whisk together the olive oil, vinegar, garlic, and basil.
- Pour half of this mixture onto a cookie sheet and spread it around.
- Place tomatoes cut-side down on cookie sheet on top of the oil blend.
- Drizzle tomatoes with remaining oil, then sprinkle with the maple sugar and salt.
- Bake slowly in oven at 300 degrees for 3 hours.
- Blend or process when done.
- Serve hot over pasta, rice, or white beans (If you don't have 3 hours, you can roast them at 400 for 30 to 45 minutes or broil for 15 minutes, but it won't taste the same).
