Tomatoes Lutece image

I believe there is a NYC restaurant "Lutece", but this is from Taste of Oregon and is our favorite way to serve fresh tomatoes. Remember, never refrigerate your tomatoes. If you aren't going to use them right away, buy or pick them underripe and they'll ripen up in a couple of days, counter-top. Preparation time includes letting the tomatoes stand at room temperature for 20 minutes.
