Sterilize a one pint jar by washing with soapy water and then pouring boiling water over the inside and outside of the jar. Boil the screw band and lid in hot water.
When jar is dry (air-dried) place the dried tomatoes into the bottom. Use a clean spoon to pack tomatoes together. Add a few leaves of basil. Continue to layer tomatoes and basil until the jar is full. Pour olive oil slowly over the top.
Insert the handle of the spoon down along the sides of the jar five to six times to force air pockets out. Make sure the oil completely covers all of the tomatoes.
