(Confession: I have no idea what “lutece” means. We’ve call these “Grandma Mary Tomatoes” as long as I can remember. What else do we call them? DELICIOUS!)
Do you have a gazillion tomatoes from your garden? Did you pick up more tomatoes than you should have at the farmers market? This recipe is a family favorite for those super sweet vine ripened tomatoes.
8 firm ripe tomatoes
1/4 c chopped parsley
1 clove garlic, crushed
1 tsp salt
1 tsp sugar
1/4 tsp pepper
1/4 c oil
2 Tbsp vinegar
2 tsp prepared mustard
Wedge tomatoes into about six pieces. Combine remaining ingredients in small jar; cover. Shake well. Pour over tomatoes. Cover lightly; let stand at room temperature at least 20 minutes before serving. (Grandma Mary says: I like to sprinkle the parsley over after pouring sauce over tomatoes.) Keeps for use the next day.
Yum, I do have tons of tomatoes coming in, I’ll try this – thank you!!!
Yum, Char! Those looks so good! I love this time of year.
“Lutece” refers to the area of modern-day Paris – how many times do I have to tell you?????
Apparently at least one more. Thanks, Mom.
My husband will love this! By the way…love that your mom is still teaching you And your photos are amazing! You are getting good with that camera!
I have just two things to add here. First, s delicious. Second, I had three years of high school French, have visited three times and still had no idea Lutece was.

I love summer tomatoes… this sounds like a light and fresh way to enjoy them. Thanks for sharing this recipe!
Hi, love your blog. I’m guessing that Lutece refers to a restaurant that was formerly in New York City,
This looks delicious. With all the tomatoes I have, this is a wonderful new recipe to use them for!
You may or may not know that free radicals are
oxygen molecules that are unstable and have been
shown in studies to increase the risks of cancers and other diseases.
The good news is that this can be reversed by lowering your intake of this nutrient.
It is native to South America and is now cultivated all over the world with many varieties
often grown in green houses in cool climates.
I rarely leave a response, however after reading a few of the responses
here Tomato Lutece – Crap I’ve Made. I actually do have a couple of questions for you if you tend not to mind. Could it be just me or does it appear like some of these responses look as if they are left by brain dead individuals? And, if you are posting on other online social sites, I would like to keep up with anything new you have to post. Would you list of all of all your public pages like your twitter feed, Facebook page or linkedin profile?
Amazing! Its in fact amazing article, I have got much clear
idea about from this piece oof writing.
