1. 1Preheat oven to 400°F. Wash and cut tomatoes through the center horizontally.
2. 2Hold one half of the tomato in your left hand and using your fingers on the other hand dig out the juice and seeds of each cavity. Repeat with all tomato halves.
3. 3Line a baking sheet with paper towels and put a cooling rack on the baking sheet.
4. 4Place each tomato upside down on the cooling rack for 5 minutes (this will completely drain each tomato).
5. 5Mix the remaining ingredients (grated Parmesan, diced shallots, minced fresh sage, dried parsley, and minced garlic) together in a small bowl. Put tomatoes on a baking sheet. Stuff each tomato cavity with the cheese/herb mixture. If you have extra, place on the center of each tomato.
6. 6Drizzle tomatoes with olive oil and season generously with salt and pepper.
7. 7Bake tomatoes for 10 to 15 minutes.
8. 8Serve immediately.
