Edible parts

Ripe fruit

Recipe idea for your Chef's Choice Orange F1 tomato harvest. For a salad where the tomatoes take center stage, cut the ripe fruit into wedges or thick slices and arrange them in a shallow dish. Finely slice a small shallot, then add it along with a few hand-torn basil leaves. Whisk together some olive oil and a splash of cider vinegar, and drizzle this vinaigrette over just before serving. Season with salt gradually to keep the fruit's flavor at the forefront. Add, if desired, pieces of fresh cheese and toasted bread. Collect the juices at the bottom of the dish to drizzle over the final bites. The size of the fruit should guide your cutting: keep small fruits in bite-sized pieces and divide large tomatoes into easy-to-eat chunks. Very juicy flesh is best added at the last moment to a fresh preparation. For cooking, use a sufficiently wide surface so that the juices can evaporate.
