Electric Tomatoes for a party Peel as many Cherry Tomatoes as you can be bothered to.(It's very tedious - to get the skin to separate easily you have to blanche the tomatoes, i.e. put them in a sieve and pour boiling water over them to weaken the skins - Note: Don't boil the tomatoes, you want them as fresh-tasting as possible. Use a sharp knife to cut a start in the skin and then peel it off, leaving as much flesh on the tomato as you can). Discard the skins. In a sealable container (preferably glass) mix Vodka (Absolut works great), Lea & Perrins, Horseradish, salt, pepper, etc. (all the works for your favourite Bloody Mary except the tomato juice). Put your naked tomatoes into this mix, seal and put in the fridge for about 24 hours. During this time, the alcohol and flavours will be drawn ino the tomatoes and some tomato juice and flavour will pass back into your mixture. Put a cocktail stick in each tomato and present on a plate (no marinade). The taste is spectacular. Note: Put an "Alcoholic Content" sign on these for your Alky, TT and Designated Driver friends. Add canned tomato juice to the remaining vodka marinade (with lovely fresh tomato flavour) to create the freshest-tasting Bloody Marys you've ever had.
