Edible parts

Ripe fruit
Recipe idea for your Orangeto F1 cherry tomato harvest. Roast the small tomatoes on a baking sheet to concentrate their flavor. Slice them in half, place them cut-side up, and add a drizzle of olive oil. Distribute a few slivers of garlic among the fruit, tucking them in so they are not exposed on top. Bake at 200 °C (392 °F) and monitor until the edges begin to brown. The flesh should soften without completely dissolving into juice. Toss the still-warm tomatoes with short pasta and a little cooking water, then finish with fresh basil and pepper. The size of the fruit dictates the cut: keep small fruit whole for bite-sized pieces and divide larger tomatoes into easy-to-eat portions. Very juicy flesh is best added at the last minute to fresh preparations. When roasting, use a sufficiently large surface area so the juices can evaporate.
