Although it looks like a mutated, bulbous alien fruit, the heirloom tomato is a true gift from the produce gods. These heavenly tomatoes tomatoes are varieties that have been around for generations and have retained their original characteristics and genetics. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Think of heirloom tomatoes like purebred animals, only in tomato form. They are not genetically modified or hybridized and they come in a variety of shapes, sizes, and colors. Don&#8217;t be afraid of the green ones! No matter what the color of the tomato is, give them the old feel test. If you notice that the tomatoes are very soft or squishy, avoid them and opt for ones that are a little firmer in texture. If the tomatoes are too firm, they may need a day or two to ripen more for optimal flavor. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These tomatoes are rich in several nutrients, including vitamins C, A, and K, fiber, potassium, and antioxidants. Researchers note that heirloom tomatoes contain carotenoids, which work to prevent cellular damage and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dherbs.com\/articles\/diet-nutrition\/5-turmeric-drinks-to-help-reduce-inflammation\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"86\" title=\"5 Turmeric Drinks To Help Reduce Inflammation\">reduce inflammation<\/a>. Some of these carotenoids may even improve heart function. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This salad is beautiful because of its simplicity.
