COOKING TIPS
In the kitchen.
- 1Roast halved grape tomatoes at 400°F (200°C) with olive oil, salt, and herbs until they blister and caramelize, concentrating their sweetness.
- 2Ideal for fresh salads, skewers (like caprese), or bruschetta due to their firm texture, low seed content, and sweet flavor.
- 3Sauté whole in a pan with garlic and olive oil until they begin to burst to create a quick, rustic sauce for pasta or chicken.
- 4Thread onto skewers for grilling, which imparts a smoky flavor and softens them perfectly.
STORAGE
Keep it fresh.
- Store at room temperature on the counter, away from direct sunlight, for up to one week to preserve optimal flavor and texture.
- Avoid refrigeration, as cold temperatures can cause the flesh to become mealy and dull the taste. Only refrigerate if overripe to slow decay.
