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.
