tomatoes completely. Remove from the water and peel the skin off each  
tomato. Quarter each tomato 3/4 of the way to the bottom. Remove the seeds.  
Place the tomatoes in a large glass pan. Season the tomatoes with salt and  
pepper. In a small mixing bowl whisk together the oil, mustard and honey.

plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 6 hours. Remove from the  
refrigerator and pour off the marinade into a medium size bowl.

the water for 8 minutes or until the shrimp turn pink and tails curl  
completely. Remove from the water and cool completely. Add the shrimp, corn,  
diced tomatoes, onions, olives, chervil and garlic to the bowl of marinade.
