Cherry Tomato Flower - Cooking Tips

Place tomato stem side up on cutting board.

Slice tomato down the center but do not cut completely through. Resembling a cross, slice the tomato again, careful not to cut completely through. You should now have four sections that resemble the petals of a flower.

With a sharp knife, carefully slice away the membrane and seeds of the tomato. A thin layer of meat should remain on the skin.

Allow the petals to fall open and place a small amount of course mustard on the center point. The tomato flowers can be covered and refrigerated until you are ready to serve.
