--------  ------------  --------------------------------
  30                    sun-dried tomatoes
   1      tablespoon    olive oil
   3      teaspoons     garlic -- finely minced
     1/8  teaspoon      red pepper flakes
     1/4  teaspoon      oregano
                        salt and pepper
 

Preparation:

Ensure that the tomatoes are not overly salty. Refresh them in warm water to cover for about 10 minutes. Soak them just long enough to soften them, but be careful that they do not become soggy. Drain and pat dry. Warm the olive oil in a small sauté‚pan over very low heat. Add the garlic, red pepper flakes and oregano and warm for 5 to 8 minutes. Be careful not to let the garlic burn. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Make the "sandwiches" by laying one tomato face down, drizzling a bit of the herb-infused olive oil on it and covering with a second sun-dried tomato. Serve at room temperature. Carol Field, "Italy in Small Bites"
