Edible parts
Ripe fruits
Recipe idea for your 'Summer Breeze' F1 strawberry harvest. Prepare a berry compote to accompany yogurt or pancakes. Remove the stems and, for the ground cherries, the dry husks. Rinse the fruit, then place it in a small saucepan with just enough water to prevent sticking at the start. Heat gently and stir until the fruit begins to break down. Mash some of it with a spoon, keeping a few chunks in the mixture. Taste before adding sugar, as the balance depends on the harvest. Let cool until lukewarm, then serve a small portion over your chosen dessert or breakfast. For a thicker texture, continue cooking uncovered while stirring. Add a little lemon zest if you wish to brighten the flavor without masking the fruit. Prepare a modest amount and store the cooled compote in the refrigerator in a sealed container.
