Tomatinhos (Roasted Tomatoes)

1 Costco box of grape tomatoes / or cherry tomatoes
2  or 3 TBS of Rock Salt
Sprigs of rosemary (handfull)
6 gloves of garlic unpeeled
Olive oil

Preheat oven to 350F
Wash the tomatoes and dry them well, (don't use cold tomatoes as the condensation will create too much liquid)
Put tomatoes in baking pan and add salt on top as well as the sprigs of rosemary.
Use something flat to roughly press the unpeeled garlic to release the flavor and distribute the cloves in the tomato pan.
Pour olive oil over the tomatoes until the bottom of the pan is covered
Bake in oven at 350F for about 15 minutes on bottom tray.  Then transfer to the top tray to broil for a few minutes.  
Serve with pasta, toast, crackers… If you want, you can blend the roasted tomatoes to create a sauce.
