We prove that if $A$ is a subset of those primes which are congruent to $1 \pmod {3}$ such that the relative density of $A$ in this residue class is larger than $\frac{1}{2},$ then every sufficiently large odd integer $n$ which satisfies $n \equiv 0 \pmod {3}$ can be written as a sum of three primes from $A$. Moreover the threshold of $\frac{1}{2}$ for the relative density is best possible.
Nous prouvons que si $A$ est un sous-ensemble des nombres premiers qui sont congrus à $1 \pmod {3}$ tel que la densité relative de $A$ dans cette classe résiduelle soit supérieure à $\frac{1}{2}$, alors tout entier impair $n$ suffisamment grand qui satisfait $n \equiv 0 \pmod {3}$ peut être écrit comme une somme de trois nombres premiers de $A$. De plus, le seuil de $\frac{1}{2}$ pour la densité relative est optimal.
