Stuffed cherry tomatoes are a bit more work than large ones, but they have
the same virtues;  they add color to an hors d'oeuvres platter, are easy to
handle, and are perfect portion controls.  Prepare then in the same way as
the shells for Cold Stuffed Tomatoes, although you will have to be even more
careful not to tear the sides.  Discard the caps in this case.  Salt and
drain the tomatoes for 30 minutes, and stuff with the filling of your
choice.

Each tomato will hold about 1 tablespoon of filling.  Try Salmon Mousse,
Tapenade Dip, Pesto Mayonnaise, or Taramosalata;  or mash a bit of soft
fresh chevre cheese such as Montrachet.  Garnish each tomato with a sprig of
fresh dill or parsley or a basil leaf.  Chill until serving time.
