    This recipe calls for a large, underripe heirloom tomato to give it a firm texture that will stand up to the pickled squash. A yellow or orange heirloom tomato will give it a particularly sunny color, but an underripe heirloom of any color should taste just as nice.

    Ingredients

    • 1/4 cup white balsamic vinegar
    • 1 5-oz. yellow squash, halved lengthwise and sliced 1/8-inch-thick

    3. Drain squash well; stir into diced tomato mixture. Season with salt and pepper, if desired. Let stand 5 to 10 minutes.
