If you find yourself talking about your favorite heirloom tomatoes the way oenophiles talk about fine wine, Oxheart should be added to your collection. Shaped like its namesake, slice to accentuate the heart shape for a distinctive statement on the plate. This popular heirloom tomato become an instant hit when introduced in the mid-1900’s, bred to include pink and orange varieties, yet none taste as good as the original red.
Introduced around 1925, the Oxheart tomato is an old favorite that's loved for its unique heart shape and pinkish red skin. The vining plants perform best when staked for support, allowing them to grow upward and bear the largest fruits. Oxheart tomatoes grow in clusters and are normally around 6-8 ounces when mature, but some can grow as large as a pound or more. A fine slicing variety that's also stellar for salads, sauces, and canning, their flesh is dense and meaty with very few seeds and has a robust tomato flavor. Like all tomatoes, Oxheart tomatoes are powerhouses when it comes to containing many healthy nutrients, the most notable of which is lycopene. Of all vegetables, tomatoes have the highest concentration of this beneficial antioxidant, which has been found to promote cardiovascular health, aid in the prevention and treatment of cancer, and help maintain healthy eyesight.
