Edible parts

Ripe fruit

Recipe idea for your ‘Striped German’ tomato harvest. For a salad where tomatoes are the star, cut ripe fruit into quarters 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. Mix olive oil with a little apple cider vinegar and pour this vinaigrette over the salad just before serving. Season with salt gradually to keep the fruit's flavor front and center. If desired, add pieces of fresh cheese and toasted bread. Collect the juice at the bottom of the dish to drizzle over the last bites. The size of the fruit guides the cut: keep small fruits whole for bites and cut large tomatoes into easy-to-eat pieces. Very juicy flesh benefits from being added at the last moment to a fresh preparation. For cooking, use a wide enough surface so the juice can evaporate.
