• Put tomatoes, crab, chives, lemon juice, zest, salt and pepper into a large bowl and toss gently to combine.
• Spoon tomato and crab salad onto plates and serve with dollops of the dill sour cream on the side for dipping.

Steps:

• Purée 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 very warm 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.
• Just before serving, put the crab in a bowl. Add the lemon zest, lemon juice, olive oil and basil. Season with salt and pepper and toss lightly. Place a small mound to one side of each of 6 plates.
• Unmold half the gelée (reserving the rest for another use -- with goat cheese and toasts, for instance) and chop into small pieces. Spoon in a line or half-moon shape next to the crab. Then spoon the cucumber next to the gelée.
