VODKA-SPIKED CHERRY TOMATOES WITH PEPPER SALT
These tender, potent little orbs make a splendid Bloody Mary-esque addition to a beach-blanket picnic or a fancy cocktail party, and they tend to disappear in no time flat. Blanching them makes quick work of slipping off their skins.

- Drain and peel, transferring to a large shallow dish.
- Stir together vodka, vinegar, sugar, and zest until sugar has dissolved, then pour over tomatoes, gently tossing to coat. Marinate, chilled, at least 30 minutes and up to 1 hour.
