1. Puree the tomatoes in a food processor. Strain through a fine-meshed sieve into a small saucepan. This should yield about 1 cup liquid. Add the sake to the tomato water and heat over a medium-low flame until verywarm to the touch. Season to taste with salt. Remove from the heat and stir in the gelatin until it is fully dissolved. Pour into a pie dish or other baking dish. Chill until firm.
