Edible parts

Ripe fruits
Recipe idea for your Mega Fantastique F1 tomato harvest. For a salad where the tomatoes take center stage, cut the ripe fruit into wedges 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 apple cider vinegar and drizzle this vinaigrette over the salad just before serving. Salt gradually to keep the fruit's flavor at the forefront. If desired, add pieces of fresh cheese and toasted bread. Collect the juices at the bottom of the dish to drizzle over the last few bites. The size of the fruit dictates how to cut it: keep small fruits bite-sized and divide large tomatoes into easy-to-eat pieces. Very juicy flesh is best added at the last minute to a fresh preparation. For cooking, use a fairly wide surface so that the juices can evaporate.
