Edible parts

Ripe fruits
Recipe idea for your 'Stuffer Striped' tomato harvest. For a salad where the tomatoes take center stage, cut the 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. Whisk olive oil with a little cider vinegar and drizzle this dressing over just before serving. Add salt gradually to keep the flavor of the fruit in the foreground. If desired, add pieces of fresh cheese and toasted bread. Collect the juices at the bottom of the dish to drizzle over the last bites. The size of the fruit guides how you cut it: keep small fruits bite-sized and divide large tomatoes into easy-to-eat pieces. Very juicy flesh is best added to a fresh preparation at the last moment. For cooking, use a wide enough surface so that the juices can evaporate.
