Somewhat
misnamed, considering tomatoes are in fact fruits, fruit tomatoes are so
called because of their super-sweetness. Look for them in Japanese
supermarkets or gourmet shops that stock fresh produce. You can also use
vine-ripened or organic cherry tomatoes, which are about the same size. A
truly ripe fruit tomato needs little to adorn it!
