Hello Fred,
See below for three different kinds.
Phaed
Roasted Tomatoes
3 ripe tomatoes
8 tbsp. bread crumbs
2 tbsp. parsley, chopped
1/2 tsp. garlic powder
Salt, pepper
6 tbsp. oil
Cut well-ripened tomatoes in halves. Remove some pulp. Add pulp to bread crumbs,
parsley and garlic powder. Add salt and pepper to taste. Mix the preceding.
Stuff the tomato halves. Put oil in baking pan. Place tomatoes in pan and bake
at 350 degrees for 30 minutes or until done.
-----------------------------------------------
To make oven-roasted tomatoes any time of the year, slice Roma tomatoes into round
about one-half inch thick. Place the slices in a salad spinner, rinse with cold
water then spin. The water and most of the seeds will fall to the bottom. Preheat
the oven to 250-degrees and line a baking sheet with foil. Toss the tomatoes with
olive oil, salt and pepper, then arrange in a layer on a rack. Place the rack on
the baking sheet and roast in the oven six to eight hours, or until they look
like big, red raisins.
--------------------------------
Oven Roasted Tomatoes
6 medium tomatoes, sliced crosswise 1/2 to 3/4 inch thick
Olive oil
Salt, pepper and granulated sugar
Heat oven to 300*F (150*C). Line two baking sheets with aluminum foil;
generously rub with oil. Arrange tomato slices in a single layer on prepared
baking sheets. Sprinkle with salt, pepper and sugar.
Roast until the tomatoes shrivel, the edges start to turn brown and most of
the liquid around the tomatoes has caramelized, about 1 hour.
Roasted tomatoes will keep 4 or 5 days in the refrigerator.

Hello Marilyn,
Normally, I do not look for more than one recipe per e-mail. I'll make an
exception this once.
I could only find one of these that gave Soft as Silk by name. It's the Orange
Chiffon, below. There is no special site that gives the recipes that Soft as
Silk has put on their boxes. When people post recipes on the Internet, they
usually omit brand names, and they practically never say "this is from the Soft
as Silk box.". Therefore, "Soft as Silk cake flour" becomes, just "cake four",
or sometimes just "flour". The other recipes below are recipes with the
names you give, but with just "cake flour" as an ingredient. Best I can do.
Phaed
Orange Chiffon Cake
2 1/4 c. flour (Soft As Silk flour)
1 1/2 c. sugar
3 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. salt
Sift all the above ingredients together in a large mixing bowl. Make a well
in center and add: 1/2 c. Wesson oil
5 unbeaten egg yolks
3/4 c. cold water
Grated rind of 2 oranges (about 2 tbsp.)
Beat until smooth.
--Second Bowl:--
1 c. egg whites
1/2 tsp. cream of tartar
Beat until light (not dry). Pour egg yolk mixture gradually over beaten egg
whites, gently fold in with rubber scraper, just until blended (do not stir).
Pour immediately into ungreased tube pan. Bake 50 minutes at 325 degrees
then increase to 350 degrees for 10 minutes or until top springs back when
lightly touched. Turn pan upside down over funnel or pop bottle. Let cool.
Loosen from sides of tube with a spatula. Turn pan over and hit edges
sharply on table to loosen. Using toothpicks in sides of cake as a guide
or markers, split cake into 3 layers.
--Pineapple Coconut Icing:--
3 egg whites
2 1/4 c. sugar
1/4 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. cream of tartar
1/2 c. syrup from the canned pineapple
Put in top of double boiler over boiling water. Beat with electric mixer
7 minutes or until icing forms a peak. Remove from heat and continue beating
until cool. Reserve 1 cup of the icing for the top. Spread remaining icing
between layers and on sides. Add 1/2 cup drained, crushed pineapple to the
reserved icing. Spread on top. Sprinkle sides with 1 1/2 cups toasted
coconut. The well drained pineapple could be blotted with a paper towel.
