Ingredients
Tomato juice (3 parts)
Vodka (1 part)
Agar Agar flakes (use enough for a firm set based on packet instructions)
Tabasco
Worcestershire Sauce (optional - vegetarians can substitute soy sauce)
Method
- Put the tomato juice in a saucepan and sprinkle over the Agar Agar. Heat gently until agar dissolves (do not stir)
- Simmer for ten minutes stirring occasionally.
- Allow to cool and stir in vodka, dash of Tabasco and Worcestershire sauce (if using)
- Line a small teacup or similar with cling film allowing a very generous overlap on all sides.
- Pour the mix into the cling film in desired quantity. I think its best to make them quite small so that they just pop into the mouth.The one in the photo is a bit large!
- Gather edges of cling film together and twist tightly until all air is removed and the liquid forms a sphere when held up.
- Knot the cling film tightly to retain the shape,
- Hang 'tomato' in the fridge until set. I did this laying a small knife across the top of a beaker and tying the tail of the cling film to the knife - so that the 'tomato' was suspended in the beaker. There may be other methods!
- When set, carefully unwrap the cling film and place a real tomato stalk on top of the 'tomato'.
