Edible parts
Fruits
Recipe idea for your 'Jade Knight' F1 pumpkin harvest: Prepare zucchini or tender pattypan squash fritters. Grate the flesh, lightly salt it, and let it drain in a colander. Then, squeeze the strands in a clean cloth to remove some of the water. Mix with an egg, a little flour, minced green onion, and grated cheese. Place small portions in a lightly oiled hot pan, then flatten them with a spatula. Flip the fritters when the bottom is golden brown and continue cooking until the center is set. Serve them with a lemon yogurt sauce, accompanied by a tomato salad. The size of the pieces influences cooking more than their exact shape. Check several pieces before removing the dish from the heat, especially if the harvest includes fruits of different sizes. Moist flesh sometimes requires more evaporation; denser flesh may require more liquid.
