Ingredients
36 firm but ripe cherry tomatoes about an inch in diameter
½ cup sour cream or creme fraiche
½ ounce sturgeon, salmon or whitefish caviar (see note)
Preparation
- Step 1
Remove any stems from the cherry tomatoes. Turn them stem-side down on a cutting board or other work surface. Carefully slice off the top third of each tomato, reserving these pieces for another use.
- Step 2
Stir the sour cream or creme fraiche to make it smooth. Using a small spoon, dab a scant teaspoon of the cream carefully and neatly on the top of each tomato.
- Step 3
Using the tip of a knife, place a tiny dab of the caviar on the cream. Arrange the tomatoes on a platter and serve, or refrigerate for up to one-half hour before serving.
Tiny sprigs of herb, like dill, can be used instead of the caviar.
