Edible parts

Ripe fruit
Recipe idea using your Cherokee Carbon F1 tomato harvest. Assemble an open-faced sandwich with large slices of ripe tomato. Toast a thick slice of country-style bread sturdy enough to hold the juices without falling apart. Lightly rub the warm crumb with a garlic clove, then spread with fresh cheese or ricotta. Slice the tomato crosswise to reveal the flesh and the seed cavities. Arrange the slices on the bread, add a drizzle of olive oil, and a few basil leaves. Season with salt at the last moment. For a more substantial meal, serve the tartine with a salad of white beans and crisp greens. The size of the fruit dictates how you cut it: keep smaller fruits in 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. For cooking, use a wide surface area to allow the juices to evaporate.
