How to cook it

Choose a piece of ripe seasonal fruit, such as an apple, a pear, a banana, or an orange.
Rinse it under cold water and pat it dry.
Cut it into wedges or slices if you like, especially for a young child, or simply leave it whole.
Eat it out of hand or with a small fork, the single most common way an ordinary French dinner actually ends.
