I'm sure this recipe is even better with the ripe, juicy tomatoes of summer. But one of its virtues is that it works quite well with the hard tomatoes sold in grocery stores during the winter. You know those tomatoes -- the ones that could be used in a pinch as baseballs. The broiling softens them up, and the herbs make them very tasty.
